Booker's Bourbon Batch 2020-02 "Boston Batch"

My favorite of the bookers so far! Not much nose but a hell of a flavorful finish.

Nose: Roasted peanuts, Bit -O-honey candy , a hint of tobacco, oak, corn... Palate: peanut brittle, burnt sugar (like on top of a creme brûlée) not a bad experience, very oily mouth feel. Leaves the top of the tongue a little numb. Definitely get the proof coming through. Finish: Medium finish. Lingers for a few seconds, but the flavor finishes well before the burn on the back of the throat. Overall: It is a good pour... it gets boring though after the first pour. I look for different complexities, but keep getting the same flavor forward profile with no nuances. I expect more from a $100 bottle. I am not unhappy that I bought it, but I wouldn’t buy another for under $50. I have several <$50 bottles I have tried this year that bring more to the table.

Puro spice

This bottle packs a punch, lots of heat. The flavor is very strong as well, lots of depth and maybe the most vanilla I've gotten from a Booker's in a long time, and I'm a fan. If you dislike Booker's then *surprise* you won't like this. I know it's more expensive now, I know it used to be a $60 bottle, but here we are. If you're reading this you're probably looking for an excuse to buy it, so... Buy it.

First sip the spices were muddled and the sweetness was buried. After it aired with some ice, it brought out vanilla, caramel and oak. There is still some spices I couldn't pull out.
