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

Its overall a very enjoyable drinker. Baking spices, carmel, vanilla, peanut, oak. The finish is long but not as intense as i would expect from a 125+ proof bourbon. Overall this is a great batch for Bookers but at its price I would still rather have ECBP B520 as its cheaper and IMO better.

N: cinnamon, baking spices, caramel, nuget, vanilla,ethanol, leather P: cinnamon, potting soil, baking spice, peanut brittle F: Kentucky hug, oak, potting soil again, caramel, slight mint, peanut brittle So ya, never tasted potting soil in a bourbon before, dunno what that’s about

I’ve heard good things about this one. Time to get on with it. The nose is sweet and rich with can of roasted peanuts, barrel char, dried fruit (apricot and raisin), rye spice, milk chocolate, chewy caramel, dusty wood shavings, light baking spices. The palate is sweet and oily that tingles the tip of the tongue. There are roasted peanuts, barrel char, rye spice, rich caramel, vanilla, dried fruit and dusty wood shavings. The palate is a little drying, but really not bad considering the proof. The finish is long and hot at first that lets roasted peanuts, rye, caramel and dried fruit ride it out. Man, this has to be one of the most well balanced bourbons I’ve ever had. Basically everything I picked up on the nose, I also got in the palate and finish. Also, it’s delicious!! Edit: Since my review, Distiller has put their official review up. Whoever did it must have eaten a hot tuna sandwich for lunch before trying it because their review does not resemble this whiskey at all. I know everyone has their own likes and dis-likes, but to not even pick up some of the most prominent notes (peanuts for example), tells me something was off. Oh well. Now you have two totally different opinions.

Wow, this is amazing!!!! Absolutely love this, has some spice, but overall a great pour
