Booker's 6 Year "Granny's Batch" - 2020
Booker's Bourbon "Granny's Batch" 2020-01 is a remarkable expression that pays tribute to Booker Noe's grandmother, who played a significant role in raising him. This batch was aged for 6 years, 4 months, and 21 days, and bottled at a robust 126.4 proof (63.2% ABV), offering bourbon enthusiasts a full-flavored and potent experience. The nose of Granny's Batch is rich and inviting, featuring a harmonious blend of sweet and spicy aromas. Buttery notes mingle with toasted walnuts, creating a warm and comforting scent. Dusty oak and citrus undertones add complexity, while a powdery vanilla aroma evokes memories of freshly baked cake. As the bourbon opens up, rich cherry and dark stewed plum scents emerge, accompanied by hints of black pepper and grape tannins. On the palate, Granny's Batch delivers an intense yet surprisingly delicate flavor profile. The initial sip brings a wave of heat, quickly followed by a thick, syrupy cherry juice note. As the bourbon develops on the tongue, creamy citrus flavors emerge, complemented by rye spice, cinnamon stick, and plum. The signature Beam peanut shell note, while present, is more subtle in this batch, allowing other flavors to shine through. The finish is impressively long, with waves of flavor that seem to go on forever. The interplay between sweet and spicy notes continues, with lingering hints of cinnamon, vanilla, and that characteristic dusty, salted peanut shell flavor. The high proof is evident but not overwhelming, creating a warm, satisfying conclusion to each sip. Granny's Batch showcases the complexity and depth that Booker's is known for, offering a bourbon that is both powerful and nuanced. It's a fitting tribute to Booker Noe's grandmother, delivering a memorable tasting experience that bourbon enthusiasts will savor.
