Booker's Batch 2016-03 'Toogie's Invitation' Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Booker's Batch 2016-03 'Toogie's Invitation' — the third named batch of 2016, honoring Toogie, a family friend of the Noe family and part of the personal community that Booker's naming tradition celebrates. Kentucky straight bourbon, uncut and unfiltered at natural barrel proof. The middle batch of the five 2016 named releases.
Toogie's Invitation sits at the midpoint of the inaugural Booker's naming year — between Bluegrass (01) and Anni's Answer (02) before it, and Bluegill Creek (04) and Off The Rocker (05) after. The five-batch 2016 year established the naming format that has continued with each subsequent year's releases, with each batch connected to a person, place, or memory from Booker Noe's personal world.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Warm caramel, vanilla, toasted oak, and baking spice. Palate: Full and concentrated at cask strength — toffee, charred barrel, rye pepper, dark fruit. Finish: Long and warming with persistent barrel spice.
