Brand & Product Story
Created by sixth-generation master distiller Booker Noe, Booker’s was conceived to be shared “straight from the barrel,” a tradition continued today. The 2025 Collection tells a three-part story: a tribute to longtime Beam leader Barry Berish (“Barry’s Batch”), a nostalgic nod to the Noe family’s backyard refuge (“By the Pond”), and an honor to master distiller Jerry Dalton (“Jerry’s Batch”). Together, they capture the bold, full-bodied house style while highlighting how each batch’s age and warehouse mix influence character.
FAQs
Are all three bottles barrel proof?
Yes. Booker’s is bottled uncut and unfiltered at its natural cask strength.
What is the mashbill?
The producer does not disclose the mashbill; it is a traditional bourbon recipe using corn, rye, and malted barley.
How do the batches differ beyond proof and age?
Each batch blends different production dates and warehouse locations, which creates variation in aroma, palate, and finish across the trio.
