  • Booker’s 2021-02 Tagalong Batch Bourbon Review

    I am a big Booker's fan in general. This might be close to one of my favorite Booker's profiles.

  • Booker’s 2021-01 Donohoe’s Batch Bourbon Review

    I am a big Booker's fan in general. Much lighter than previous Booker's batches I've experienced. Bright linen. Light, fruity herbs. Otherwise a rather low complexity Booker's batch, I still find it quite enjoyable.

    to preface this review with the fact that Granny's Batch was the batch that really got me hooked on Booker's

  • Booker's 2017-02 Blue Knights Batch Bourbon Review

    This batch is named in honor of the Blue Knights Motorcycle Club. I recently got the honor of getting to roll alongside some of the Blue Knights in a funeral procession for a member that was close in the family. I decided to finally get this open and think about some interesting lives other than my own for a little. This pour is for Carl. Company on Label: James B. Beam Whiskey Type: Bourbon Mash Bill Percentages: 75% Corn, 13% Rye, 12% Barley Proof: 127.4° Age: 6 years Further identification: 2017-02 Blue Knights Batch comes bearing a light green label in a wooden box with a batch information card; I believe this was the first year they started including a batch information card, but someone feel free to chime in and correct me if I'm wrong! Nose: Lovely citrus and a floral bouquet. Smells like a warm summer day in a sun soaked grassy field. Blood orange sweetness and a wisdom-filled oak join me. A weathered and worn leather can be found floating on a light breeze. Lovely fruit mingle with a dusty old wood plank… prunes and lemon meringue pie with a thick, flaky crust. Completely turned a page into a beautiful vanilla aroma as I get towards the bottom of the glass. Empty glass has a rich fresh leather aroma with a hint of chocolate. Palate: Yow! Big proofy punch like taking a shot with that warm chest hug that always follows. Mellows into a pool of caramel and a linger of pepper. Another sip is more of that rich orange sweetness from the nose, layered into smooth vanilla bean. With cloves leading at times, it's zesty and powerful. This one brings quite the party. All throughout after a little oxidation is infinite layers of sweet crème brûlée. The linger is impossibly long. A bold and unforgettable pour. Rating: 4/5

  • Knob Creek 25th Anniversary Single Barrel Bourbon Review

    Anniversary Single Barrel release commemorated the 2017 milestone of 25 years of Knob Creek, a product that Booker Booker Noe's son, Fred celebrated the milestone with this release. This kind soul also helped me out significantly with Booker’s boxes when I put the call out.

  • Little Book Chapter 5 - "The Invitation" Review

    I love that this is the Booker's line really experimental branch and I think this blend definitely follows Woah, big barbecue brown sugar notes now; this almost has that savory characteristic that Booker's Country glass definitely reminds me of some of the earliest whiskeys I got to experience (likely a handful of Booker's

  • Wild Turkey Kentucky Spirit Single Barrel Bourbon Review

    At times both simple and complex - I'd recommend this product to someone who either hasn't tried Booker's Bourbon yet and wants to know if the price will be worth it, or someone who likes Booker's and needs

  • Old Forester Barrel Strength Single Barrel Bourbon Review

    That's one of my favorite notes and a big reason you'll find me gravitating to some of the Booker's batches It reminds me of a jacked-up version of 2021-02 Booker's "Tagalong Batch".
