Tasting
How it drinks
- Sight
- Deep amber-mahogany; rich barrel proof color, very viscous legs
- Nose
- Rich and desserty aromas with barrel char. Caramel, brown sugar, vanilla, and toasted nuts. Hints of dark fruit and leather
- Palate
- Rich and desserty, transitioning into barrel char with trailing hints of tobacco, pepper, and leather. Leans sweeter than some Booker's releases with a more dessert-forward profile. Full-bodied at 124.6 proof with remarkable smoothness for the proof
- Finish
- Long finish with barrel char, tobacco, pepper, and leather fading slowly. The desserty sweetness transitions to a drier, more savory finish
Tasting notes are AI-assisted and still being refined.
Maturation
