Bookers 2019-02 Shiny Barrel Batch Bourbon Whiskey

Description

Booker’s Small Batch Collection 2019-02 Shiny Barrel Batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey 750ml is a bold and uncompromising expression from one of the most revered names in the bourbon world, Booker Noe. Known for its high proof and unfiltered nature, this limited-edition release, part of the 2019 Booker’s collection, pays homage to a bygone era when warehouse workers would sneak tastes of the whiskey from the barrels with the most sheen, or “shine,” on them—indicating the perfect aging conditions.
The Shiny Barrel Batch boasts enticing aromas of rich caramel, vanilla, and toasted oak, with underlying hints of dark fruit and spice. On the palate, this full-bodied bourbon delivers an intense and complex profile, where flavors of brown sugar, dark chocolate, and cinnamon spice meet bold notes of charred oak and a slight nuttiness. Its uncut nature means it’s bottled straight from the barrel, delivering a punch of flavor and heat that bourbon purists will appreciate.
