Bookers Bourbon
View Full Description [+ Read More]
Booker's Bourbon is a Kentucky straight bourbon produced at Jim Beam's distillery in Clermont, where master distiller Booker Noe pioneered the practice of bottling uncut and unfiltered directly from the barrel, resulting in proof levels that typically range well above standard releases. Each named batch - including Granny's Batch and Bardstown Batch - draws from specific warehouse locations, creating meaningful variation in oak influence, sweetness, and heat across the same core mashbill. The Little Book series, a blended whiskey project continued by Booker's grandson Freddie Noe, takes a different approach, layering multiple grain recipes and aged stocks across chapters. Little Book Chapter 2 Noe Simple Task represents an early exercise in blending complexity, while Little Book Chapter 7 In Retrospect reflects a more mature compositional ambition within that evolving annual series.
