Booker's Granny's Batch (2020-01)
This batch is made up of barrels from two different production dates that were aged in six different locations within four rackhouses. The breakdown of barrel storage is as follows: 24% came from the 6th floor of 9-story warehouse G, 22% came from the 4th floor of 9-story warehouse H, 16% came from the 4th floor of 7-story warehouse L, 24% came from the 5th floor of 7-story warehouse L, 10% came from the 6th floor of 7-story warehouse L, 4% came from the 5th floor of 7-story warehouse P. I selected “Granny's Batch” on a sunny, chilly January day and found the color to be a light chestnut with a beautiful sparkle as the sunlight shone through it. I thoroughly enjoy the nose of Granny's Batch with spice and hints of vanilla coming through. The taste fills your mouth with flavor and warmth that spreads across your palate, and it has a sweet, lingering finish. I am very proud to name this batch for my grandmother- and Dad's mom- who I know would have enjoyed her evening highball made with Granny's Batch of Booker's Bourbon.

Part of the The Sazerac Company family of brands.
Note: A very small quantity of whiskies came from this single barrel, so taste variability is higher than with larger production whiskies. Many times this is not a big deal (i.e. Blanton's), but sometimes it matters (i.e. Larceny Barrel Proof versions). If the specific barrel is not listed, ask your server or a store employee for more info.
