Tasting Notes
""Kentucky Chew" is an apt name for this heavy-bodied Booker's release. It hits the palate with every bit of charred oak in the barrels, lending notes of smoke, maduro cigar, and licorice root. Sipped neat, a numbing spiciness lingers on the finish. A little bit of this whiskey goes a long way, and fans of darker, spicier bourbons will find a lot to enjoy here."
