Whether there’s a dark’n’stormy on the cards or you simply want the perfect complement to a fizzy Coke, Flor de Caña 7 Years will do the job.

The General Wine Company sources wines from all over the world, but with a particular focus on small, independent producers. A now delisted product and hard to get hold of as either the old 9 year old or the non age statement that replaced it. Spicy and sweet on the nose, the flavour is vivacious, starting out sweet and nutty with caramel, oak and dark chocolate.

Produced by Jim Beam, it’s a traditional blend with years spent maturing and a spicy sweetness which is warmly satisfying.

Coffee and bitter chocolate notes are hinted at but remain in the background alongside light spiciness. Part of the Jim Beam family, Knob Creek hearkens back to the day when all bourbon was small batch, and is made in pretty much the same way.Frank took a look at the 15 year old, while David considered the oldest of the Knob Creek siblings, the 18 year old. Knob Creek 2001 Limited Edition: Introduced in 2016, this was a one-time release that marks the passing of the production process from Booker Noe to his son Fred.
