LABEL INSPIRATION

FRED NOE - BEAM FAMILY 7TH GENERATION MASTER DISTILLER

This batch is named after one of my dad’s favorite places.

There, Dad liked to read the newspaper, tinker with his projects, and notably, it’s where he gathered our family and friends to help him select batches of his namesake whiskey. 

It’s special for me to name this batch after a place that was so important to Dad and the creation of Booker’s as we know it today.

MASTER DISTILLER NOTES

This batch has a beautiful color that is a deep chestnut and has a robust and flavor rich taste profile. The nose is a rich balance of vanilla and oak that comes from aging in the white oak barrels for over six years. The finish is balanced and pleasant and does not overpower your taste buds. 

In Dad’s honor, I’ve enjoyed this batch with a healthy splash of water, also called a “Kentucky Tea,” which was one of his signature ways of his enjoying his Booker’s.
