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.

Peerless Kentucky Straight Bourbon upholds the promise of producing top-notch spirits from the historic distillery. Unlike rye, which features more hay and pepper, Peerless Bourbon is rooted in fruits, florals, and oaks. The nose features citrus, cedar, and honeysuckle as well as a nice balance of spicy oak. The first sip is that of caramel and toasted oak before a multitude of notes from around the flavor wheel show up on the palate. The finish showcases an enduring duel between sweet and spicy notes as citrus, florals, and sweet oak tussle with dry cocoa, cinnamon, and spicy oak. The result is an amazing whiskey - fascinating for everyone from beginners to connoisseurs.
