"Plausible deniability" they call it.
The question you should be asking yourself is, what is the exact amount of torture and/or prison time you will endure before you will disclose the key?
No criminal nor judge will believe that you don't know/remember the key if they know it exists, so perhaps it's best to prevent others from knowing it exists in the first place. We call this OPSEC, or OPerational SECurity.

Appeals court: Fifth Amendment protections can apply to encrypted hard drives
United States v. Doe

This was almost addressed in United States v. Fricosu but she was stupid and had all her passwords stored in cleartext
