Booker’s is back with its second release of 2022 The Lumberyard Batch. The name for the batch is an ode to the lumberyard that Booker Noe worked at during his pre-distillery years. While his journey to becoming a distiller wasn’t exactly a straight path, it led him to his true passion.
So how does Lumberyard compare to batch 2202-01? Below is the tale of the tape of this bourbon.
- Proof: 124.8
- Age: 7 years, 1 month and 7 days
- Official Tasting Notes: has a beautiful amber color deep aroma with a hint of a vanilla and oak that opens its depth. It has a balanced taste with a bit of sweetness that leads to a pleasant finish
Jake’s Bourbon Lens Tasting Notes
- Color: The amber color is true to the pour
- Nose: Vanilla, Light Brown Sugar with a Fresh Flower bouquet
- Palate: First impression, it doesn’t drink like a typical Beam with the forward nuttiness. Brings full oak right at the front, caramel, the subtle payday type finish
- Finish: lingering with full flavor
