Just opened this one for the LSU/ALA game and it did not disappoint! The nose is everything you'd expect from a full bodied bourbon like Bookers. Sweet and nutty best describes the nose with lots of vanilla and brown sugar. The pallet is flooded with sweet vanilla and nuttiness, the back of the tongue brings a fruitiness and the pepper I love. The finish is as good as it gets. There's heat (duh!) and it lasts forever like a good bourbon should. Tasted neat in a neat glass, don't get no better! 👍 Paid $60. Super save Farmerville , LA. $56
