Booker's Lumberyard Batch (2022-02)
The batch is made up of five production dates that were aged in seven different warehouses. The breakdown of barrel storage for Booker's “The Lumberyard Batch” is as follows: 2% came from the 4th floor of 7-story warehouse X, 3% came from the 3rd floor of 7-story warehouse 5, 3% came from the 4th floor of 9-story warehouse D, 17% came from the 4th floor of 7-story warehouse Z, 19% came from the 5th floor of 7-story warehouse Q, 28% came from the 4th floor of 7-story warehouse 1, 28% came from the 6th floor of 7-story warehouse Z. This batch was pulled during the rainy weeks ahead of the Kentucky Derby. The beautiful amber color of this batch reminds me of the horses that will compete on the racetrack. The aroma is deep with hints of vanilla and oak that lead you back to enjoy it several times to explore its depth. It has a balanced taste with a bit of sweetness and a pleasant finish that will leave you longing for another sip. My dad would be really proud to have a batch dedicated to his hard-working years at The Lumberyard and the experience this liquid delivers with every glass.

E.H. Taylor Barrel Proof
Crafted from hand-selected barrels, this bourbon is bottled directly from the barrel; uncut and unfiltered at more than 125 proof. It reflects the way whiskey was produced in the days before Prohibition, when Edmund Haynes Taylor, Jr. was the owner of Buffalo Trace Distillery. Drawn from barrels aged in warehouses constructed over a century ago under Taylor's watchful eye, the taste is smooth, yet powerful and uncompromising, just like its namesake.
Rumored: 73% Corn | 17% Rye | 10% Malted Barley | High Rye

Part of the The Sazerac Company family of brands.
Note: A very small quantity of whiskies came from this single barrel, so taste variability is higher than with larger production whiskies. Many times this is not a big deal (i.e. Blanton's), but sometimes it matters (i.e. Larceny Barrel Proof versions). If the specific barrel is not listed, ask your server or a store employee for more info.

Nose: The aroma of cooked berries meets the nose, followed by a rich caramel and slightly floral smell.
Palate: The taste is bold and full of spice that fills the mouth with a distinct flavor of toasty vanilla, dried oak and pepper.
Finish: The finish is long and satisfying with a powerful rye character and lingering hints of fruit.
