Corner Creek is bottle that most mistakenly pass up as inferior due to the packaging and/or the price. The juice in this bottle is amazingly light, sweet, and fruity.

Corner Creek is complex and challenging, but it’s quite drinkable. In fact, it can generate quite the debate over the importance of “smoothness” in bourbon. That is, I have to say, the last term I’d use to describe this intriguing bottle.

House Review

Nose:
Very sweet, lots of vanilla and cream. Some mild cinnamon and pepper.
Taste:
It has a thin mouth feel but a pretty impressive palate for craft whiskey. Its mildly astringent but well balanced with lots of vanilla and cream sweetness. Starting to strike me as a dessert bourbon.
Finish:
Short but nice and spicy. I like it more than I expected.
Overall:
I don't know a whole lot about Corner Creek and I decided not to look into it too much before I tried this. Overall, I was pretty impressed given that it's a pretty low proof dram. I can totally see myself enjoying this while eating some pralines or a bowl of ice cream after dinner. Light, delicious and very gentle on the palate. Not a bad dram for the money.
