Nose
Caramel apple, green apple, and pie crust with a fruitier profile than typical Booker's releases. Classic bourbon nose with baking spice.
Palate
Powerful yet not singeing with the apple and caramel character translating from the nose. Apple pie with caramel and pie crust flavors. Swings for the fence with notable depth and zip.
Finish
Warming and spice-forward with a long finish. Leaves the palate with a pleasing sizzle and lingering complexity.
Very good
An above-profile Booker's release that delivers unexpected fruitiness and pie-like sweetness while maintaining the bold proof and spice character the brand demands.
