Booker's 30th Anniversary Bourbon

Nose - Dark chocolate and caramelized sugar Palate - Rich and fiery immediately, a lot more heat than the rest of the Booker’s I’ve had. Typical oily and slight taste of nuts/butterscotch, sweet trail and a mixture of spices the whole way through What a pleasure to be able to taste (thanks to a Jim Beam employee), absolutely worth the money for a pour - don’t pass it up!

Wish I had something extraordinary to say about this bottle. I really wanted to like it. The nose is fantastic. The taste was nothing different than any other Booker's bottling and the finish.... The finish was the worst part. The finish can make or break a good drink, and in this case it definitely broke it. I read enough to know and expect a short dry finish. SO, I was prepared for that. What I wasn't prepared for, was the tartness. Almost makes my face twinge just thinking about it. Sadly, sadly disappointed in this $200. I won't be keeping the other bottle.

I was lucky enough to get my hands on a bottle of this incredible bourbon. Me and three of my best friends had pours.... and agreed that this is really special. Do not pass up the opportunity to try if you get the opportunity.
