2024-03 “The Master Distillers Batch” Bourbon

For those who appreciate a high-proof, uncut, and unfiltered bourbon, Booker's 2024-03 release is a must-have. Known for its robust flavors and dedication to tradition, each bottle of Booker’s Bourbon offers a true taste of Kentucky’s rich bourbon heritage.

Batch Story and Age

The Booker’s 2024-03 release, like its predecessors, was carefully aged to capture the unique character of the barrels selected. Aged in the middle floors of the warehouse, where conditions are ideal for flavor development, this small-batch bourbon brings the quality and expertise for which Booker’s is celebrated. Each batch varies slightly, offering a rare, unique taste that reflects the aging process and batch selection by Booker’s master distillers.

Tasting Notes

With its high proof, Booker’s 2024-03 Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is unapologetically bold and rich. The flavor opens with notes of rich caramel, layered vanilla, and smoky oak that highlight the whiskey’s time in charred oak barrels. Mid-palate, you’ll notice hints of baking spices like cinnamon and nutmeg, with a long, warm finish that balances sweetness and spice. This batch’s strength can be tempered with a splash of water to reveal even more complexity, though it’s equally enjoyable for those who prefer their bourbon strong and full-flavored.

Booker's Bourbon has unveiled its third release of 2024: the "Master Distillers Batch" (2024-03). This limited-edition bourbon pays tribute to the influential distillers of the late 1980s and early 1990s, including Booker Noe, who played pivotal roles in revitalizing America's bourbon industry.
