Image and description shows Single Barrel Reserve. The bottle I got is a store select bourbon. Yes, it is 9 yr and 120 proof, but I paid for a reserve bottle chosen from barrels by KC people, not a guy/gal from store that I am not familiar with. It is good, but not what is advertised.

Product description
Knob Creek® Single Barrel Reserve encounters no detours or distractions. It’s just the big, pure flavor that Booker set out to create. Each barrel of Knob Creek® Single Barrel Reserve is bottled individually to become one-of-a-kind, meaning that each batch we handpick will have slight variations in taste, color, and aroma based on its final age, rack placement, and other proprietary methods passed down for seven generations.

Angelica Verified BuyerVerified BuyerAlways a good whiskey just wasn’t the proof that i ordered
Michael V. Verified BuyerVerified BuyerVery smooth, very nice dram. Lots of oak, some vanilla and hints of citrus and chocolate on the finish. It is a fine sipping whiskey but mild on flavor with a smooth mouth feel and semi dry finish.
Mona Verified BuyerVerified BuyerThank you! I purchased for a special gift and it did the trick!
Jeremy Single barrel with a hard kick. The 120 proof is almost transperant until you have had two or three which is easy to do. It is a bolder crisper version of Knob Creek with deeper flavors of coffee Carmel and vanilla. I also like this one straight out of the freezer.

FAQs
Because of the liquor’s aging process variation, bourbon’s colors range from light amber to dark caramel and each bottle must contain at least 40% ABV. Bourbon can only be called bourbon if it’s aged in an oak barrel; barrels must be new and are pre-charred to help the liquid extract as much flavor as possible from the wood.
While both whiskey and bourbon are made from the same base ingredients (a predominantly corn mash, yeast and water), a spirit can only be called bourbon if it’s crafted in the United States, surpasses a minimum 40% ABV and is aged in new, charred, white oak barrels. Bourbons are generally on the younger side of the whiskey family (compared to older whiskies like scotch) and thus deliver a sweeter profile.
Raise a glass to science: While rye, barley and wheat all contain the gluten protein, the actual gluten is removed during the bourbon’s distillation process, in which the gluten molecules are separated from the actual distillate used to make the final product.
