George Dickel 9 Year Old Hand Selected Barrel
George Dickel Hand Selected is their private barrel program. The sour-mash whiskey employs the Lincoln County Process, which is a type of charcoal filtering that is typical of Tennessee whiskey. This expression was aged for 9 years, then bottled at 103 proof, making for an exceptionally well-balanced single-barrel whiskey.
84% Corn • 8% Rye • 8% Malted Barley • High Rye

Part of the Diageo 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.

Nose: The nose opens with floral, honey, vanilla, and citrus notes, as well as some prominent oak.
Palate: There's a pleasant sweetness on the palate with fruity, vanilla, and oak spice notes.
Finish: Finishes with lingering oak, and sweet notes, as well as a slight warmth.

Booker's Pinkie's Batch (2022-04)
This batch is made up of four production dates that were aged in four different warehouses. The breakdown of barrel storage for Booker's “Pinkie's Batch” is as follows: 47% came from the 3rd floor of 7-story warehouse Z, 36% came from the 4th floor of 7-story warehouse 1, 11% came from the 4th floor of 7-story warehouse X, 6% came from the 5th floor of 7-story warehouse Q. The color of this batch is a rich, golden amber that really shines when you hold it up to the light and admire the glass you've poured. The aroma is balanced with brown spice and vanilla notes, which gives you a preview of the taste. When you first sip it, your mouth is filled with Booker's signature vanilla flavor, and it leaves you with a lingering well-rounded finish. I know my dad and grandad would have enjoyed this batch over a football game, and I'm very proud to name this batch in honor of my granddad, Frederick Booker Noe.
