Bookers Bourbon Batch 2015-05 Maw Maws Batch

MASTER DISTILLER NOTES

Maw Maws batch was named for my Great Grandmother who played an important role in my dads life. The aroma for this batch is rich with hints of vanilla and toasted nuts, and the taste is well balanced with a warmth which moves to a clean, long finish.

Bookers Bourbon, one of the few bourbons available uncut and unfiltered*, is proud to release the third batch in its 2015 collection, Batch 2015-03, which features a custom label celebrating founding distiller Booker Noes favorite part of the rackhouse and choice cut of meat The Center Cut.

Booker liked to age his namesake barrels in the center of the rackhouse the 5th floor to achieve the robust flavor that Bookers Bourbon is known for. This is where the temperature, humidity and sunlight combine to produce perfect aging conditions. As for the meat, Booker liked to cure his own and enjoyed nothing better than a thick slice from the center.

Batch 2015-03, named the The Center Cut, is the first batch in the 2015 limited-edition collection that Fred Noe, Beams 7th Generation Master Distiller, selected with the help of the Bookers Bourbon Roundtable, an exclusive group of top whiskey experts, enthusiasts and writers. For the first time ever, the Roundtable was also joined by local Louisville, Kentucky, chef, Coby Ming, who used her culinary expertise to help select a batch that embodies Bookers whiskey preferences and ensures an ideal flavor profile for food pairing.
