They say this is a sledgehammer Bourbon. It is. Bam!

Booker’s Bourbon is one of the small batch, cask strength (65.3% Vol.) Bourbons produced by the Jim Beam distillery.

Booker Noe (Jim Beam's grandson) originally bottled this straight-from-the-barrel bourbon as gifts to close friends and family, but eventually made it available to the general public. Each barrel of Booker's bourbon was hand-selected by Noe and was aged at the center of the rackhouse, where the company says that the temperature and humidity are the most favourable for fine Bourbons.

Appearance / Colour
Smoky deep amber orange.

Smell / Nose / Aroma
Huge but soft. Vanilla, honey, molasses, orange, tropical fruits, black banana and spice. Meaty aroma and cedar.

Flavor / Taste / Palate
Massive and intense. Spicy, sweet - almost liqueur like and hot. Blackberry and burnt sugar. Oak, then dryness (tannin, tobacco).

Finish
Hot, long, spicy and intense. Almond, wood, corn, a touch of maple syrup, pepper.

Comment
While it is not necessary to cut the bourbon with water, a splash or two of distilled water is recommended (by Booker Noe) to unlock some of the flavour.
