Booker's Small Batch 2025-03 " Jerry's Batch"

Honor a pivotal figure in distilling history with "Jerry's Batch," a tribute to Jerry Dalton, the first Master Distiller at James B. Beam Distilling Co. outside the Noe family lineage. Serving as the vital link between the legendary Booker Noe and his son Fred, Dalton’s legacy is preserved in this uncompromising 2025-03 release. Aged for precisely 7 years, 4 months, and 21 days, this bourbon arrives uncut and unfiltered, capturing the raw intensity of the barrel without dilution. At a commanding 124.7 proof, it delivers a bold sensory experience starting with inviting aromas of vanilla, warm caramel, and baking spices, underscored by hints of baked apricot. The palate offers a full-bodied mouthfeel rich with toffee, brown sugar, and charred oak, all rounded out by Booker’s signature note of unsalted peanuts. A long, warming finish leaves lasting impressions of leather and peppery spice, making this a complex pour designed to be savored slowly.
