Apprentice Batch is the second batch of Booker's Bourbon for 2023. This bottling pays homage to Carl Beam, Booker Noe's cousin and mentor with whom Booker worked under shortly after he began his career at Jim Beam Distillery in 1952. Two years later the pair worked together to get a newly acquired distillery in Boston, Kentucky up and running. This distillery would later be renamed as the Booker Noe Distillery. This batch was aged for 7 years, 1 month, and 2 days.

Tasting Notes

"A dominant aroma of vanilla coats scents of baked apple, spice, and lemon zest. The flavor is like a boozy lemon meringue tart, heavy on the vanilla, with a crust made of graham crackers, roasted peanuts, and caramel. The tartness shifts to green apple flavors toward the finish, which signs off with a big, spicy heat. "
