Booker's Bluegill Creek Batch Small Batch 2016-04 Cask Strength Bourbon Whiskey

Cask strength. Uncut. Small batch. Booker's Bluegill Creek Batch 2016-04 — named for the fishing spot near the Beam family property that Booker Noe loved, a personal tribute woven into one of the most celebrated named batches in the Booker's program.

Booker's Bourbon was created by Booker Noe — Jim Beam's legendary Master Distiller from 1965 to 1992 and the grandson of Jim Beam himself — in 1988 as the first commercially released cask-strength, unfiltered, uncut American bourbon. The program he established set the template for George T. Stagg, William Larue Weller, and every barrel-strength release that followed. Since 2016, each Booker's batch has been given a personal name by the Noe family, connecting the release to a specific memory or place from the Noe family's Kentucky heritage.

Bluegill Creek is named for Booker Noe's favorite fishing spot near the Jim Beam property — a personal tribute to one of his defining pastimes and the Kentucky outdoor life that shaped his character. The 2016-04 designation identifies this as the fourth named batch of 2016, making it a specific and documented moment in the Booker's program's history of personal batch naming.

Tasting Notes

  • Appearance: Rich amber from Booker's characteristic cask-strength small batch aging.
  • Nose: Vanilla, caramel, and warm grain spice — the Booker's signature at natural cask-strength intensity.
  • Palate: Bold and full — the small batch barrel selection delivering maximum extraction at uncut barrel proof.
  • Finish: Long and warming — the cask-strength character producing the extended finish that defines the Booker's program.
