More Details Booker’s Master Distillers Batch:
Booker’s® Bourbon 2024 Collection has released its third batch, titled Booker’s Batch 2024-03 “Master Distillers Batch.” This release pays tribute to a group of influential distillers from the late 1980s and early 1990s who revitalized the bourbon industry and helped restore its popularity in America. Among these legends is Booker Noe, father of Fred Noe and grandfather to Freddie Noe, along with his peers, who collectively earned recognition as the first inductees into the Bourbon Hall of Fame.
The release shows the deep admiration for these figures and acknowledges their pivotal role in shaping modern bourbon culture. They not only elevated the craft into a new era but also served as mentors, imparting valuable knowledge and instilling a deep appreciation for the art of whiskey-making.
The Master Distillers Batch release follows two prior standard releases in 2024, including Beam House Batch and Springfield Batch and a special, limited edition release of The Reserves.
