  • Booker's 2021-03 Bardstown Batch Bourbon Review

    I'm always excited for a new Booker's batch! I'm playing a little bit of catch up as I was away on a little hunting trip earlier this week.

  • Booker’s 2020-01 Granny’s Batch Bourbon Review

    I've reviewed Granny's Batch in a short flash review before, but thought it was owed a little deeper As I mentioned in my previous post, Granny's Batch was the batch that really got me hooked on Booker's getting any of the Beam peanut shell that Granny's Batch is notorious for and why I fell in love with Booker's I'm going to lean on an old trick and hold a little bit of this in my mouth for as long as I can bear I am actually really interested to see if a little blending experiment between Granny's Batch (the peanut

  • Booker's 2016-05 "Off Your Rocker" Bourbon Review

    Playing a little catch up for Day 8 and 9 of the #12DaysofWhiskeyExchange that @bourbondipity_ put together I have always loved Booker's from the start, so I have high hopes this is one of my new favorite batches Oooh, turning really nutty now, which I love in Booker's releases.

  • Booker's 2023-02 "Apprentice Batch" Bourbon Review

    over to Booker. The citrus tones begin to ebb back into the nose moments later, though this time a little more zesty I feel the lighthouse looking at me.

    When I look at a new Booker's batch, I usually use this one as my reference point to determine if a new This to me is the wonderful presentation of all the flavors I think Booker's can be and does well. My acute senses are starting to get a little overloaded by this proof, but I am definitely left with Along with the cherry sweetness there is definitely a bit of maple syrup, but sprinkled with a little
