-Or, at least my taste buds tell me so. It is a Jim Beam product. It is fairly hot, but really smooth for such a strong Bourbon.

Booker's.....The Whiskey in this package is the highest grade
bourbon made by me here at Jim Beam, it is uncut and bottled
straight from the barrel. My grandfather, Jim Beam liked his whiskey
from six to eight years old." Booker Noe
In 1988, Booker Noe introduced his own signature bourbon,
Booker's True Barrel Bourbon. Inspired by a 200 year-old tradition,
Master Distiller Emeritus Booker Noe, grandson of Jim Beam, created
his very own bourbon. Unlike anything you have ever tasted, Booker's
is the ONLY bourbon bottled straight-from-the-barrel -- uncut and
unfiltered -- a true connoisseur's sipping bourbon.
First created as a holiday gift for his special friends, Booker's whiskey was so
well-received that he decided to make it available to bourbon lovers worldwide; much
to the joy of spirit connoisseurs everywhere. Booker's Bourbon delivers a range of
intense flavors from oak-tannin and smoky vanilla to lighter tones of mocha and
coffee. Add spring water to customize the taste and finish to your palate. The
complexity provided by this straight-from-the-barrel bourbon makes Booker's the
rarest, absolute best bourbon you can buy.
Booker's Bourbon is the only uncut, unfiltered, straight-from-the-barrel,
connoisseur's sipping bourbon available today. It's bottled at its natural proof of
between 121 and 127, and aged between six and eight years. Booker Noe, Jim
Beam's grandson and master distiller emeritus, hand selects each barrel that will
become Booker's Bourbon. Each barrel that will become Booker's bourbon is aged
in the very center of the rackhouse where the temperature and humidity combines
in the perfect proportion for the finest bourbon. This is truly the absolute best
bourbon available.
