Sometimes the best thing for a whiskey is to leave it alone. When we filled a handful of Oloroso sherry barrels, we didn't mean to forget about them in a rickhouse, but that's precisely what happened. We're thrilled to share those results with you now. This rare spirit spent an extended finishing period in our Oloroso barrels, and the lengthened oxidation process resulted in a remarkable sequence of flavors that are unlike any other whiskey we've ever tasted. Each sip carries unique raisin and fruit qualities with just a hint of hazelnut on the nose. Our Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished in Oloroso Sherry Casks release is available at our distillery for a limited time.

The batch is made up of barrels from two production dates that were aged in five different rackhouse locations. The breakdown of barrel storage for Booker's Pigskin Batch is as follows: 14% came from the 6th floor of 7-story warehouse L, 15% came from the 6th floor of 9-story warehouse H, 27% came from the 5th floor of 7-story warehouse M, 32% came from the 4th floor of 7-story warehouse X, 12% came from the 5th floor of 7-story warehouse Z. This batch of Booker's has a beautiful color that previews the complexity you will experience when you stick your nose into the glass for the first time. The brown sweets come through with some slight vanilla notes. The taste is big and bold, and this batch is bottled straight from the barrel - just the way all Booker's batches have been since Dad created his namesake brand more than 30 years ago. The finish is long and warm. This will be a great batch to enjoy as the temperatures start to drop a little and you're watching your favorite football teams this season.
