LABEL INSPIRATION

FRED NOE - BEAM FAMILY 7TH GENERATION MASTER DISTILLER

IN MANY WAYS, THE RESERVES IS THE SAME BOURBON YOU KNOW AND LOVE. ALWAYS UNCUT, ALWAYS UNFILTERED. JUST AS BOOKER ENVISIONED WHEN HE CREATED HIS SMALL BATCH BOURBON COLLECTION AND CHANGED THE WORLD OF WHISKEY FOR GOOD.

But in other ways, The Reserves is something new. I've taken my granddaddy's Booker's and put it on a path to the future. Expanding its flavor profile with the most exceptional liquids in our rackhouses, it's the kind of bourbon I believe he'd be making, if he were still with us now.

I search high and low across our campuses to find the right barrels, handpicking every single one myself. They can take a while to find, but when I do, it feels like the Big Man himself picked them out.

I couldn't be prouder to share this bourbon with you all - I think even Booker would say we've "done good" with this one. 

So let's all raise a glass. Long Live Booker's
