Booker's 2024-04 Jimmy's Batch
125.8 proof 7 years, 9 months, 19 days Bourbon Beam Suntory Clermont, KY $99 75% corn, 13% rye, 12% malted barley
Nose

Rich caramel dominance with less nuttiness than expected; subtle aromatic notes; palm-rub technique reveals payday-bar nuttiness, sweet caramel, and vanilla as ethanol dissipates.

Palate

Pow of concentrated flavor; cinnamon red hots with caramel, vanilla, nuttiness, and cherry; chewy texture with good mouthfeel.

Finish

Warm and chewy with lingering sweetness.

Noteworthy
A solid, high-proof Booker's release with appealing caramel and spice notes, though it doesn't distinctly reflect Jimmy Russell's palate preferences beyond the name.
