Description
Booker’s Front Porch Batch 6 Year is a Kentucky Straight Bourbon from James B. Beam Distilling Co. in Clermont, Kentucky. Released as Batch 2017-03 and bottled at 125.9 proof, this uncut, unfiltered Booker’s release is part of the named-batch series Master Distiller Fred Noe oversees.
Master Distiller Fred Noe selected the batch from across three different rack-houses, aged 6 years, 5 months and 25 days. Third batch in the 2017 Collection, released by Fred Noe as a tribute to his father Booker Noe. Their front porch held cherished memories where Booker would spend summer evenings with his grandmother ‘Maw Maw’ discussing their days and hosting visitors. Booker’s is always bottled uncut, unfiltered, and at barrel proof.
Per Fred Noe’s notes, on the nose, it shows sweet vanilla with some caramel. The palate brings deep and complex, vanilla, nuts and oak, robust vanilla and caramel, slightly smoky, and the finish carries long and full, perfect for easygoing sipping. The pour shows Booker’s darkest, deepest amber and henna color.
A 2017 Booker’s release, this named batch is closely tracked by collectors building a complete Booker’s run. Bottled at full barrel strength with no chill filtration, it rewards a few drops of water and drinks well neat or over a single large cube.
