Booker’s “Off Your Rocker” batch is the fifth release from the 2016 Booker’s Batch collection made up of barrels from four different rack houses and five different production dates bottled in honour of Booker Noe’s enormous rocking chair.
As Booker Noe’s son, Fred Noe who is the current Master Distiller of Jim Beam and the great grandson of Jim Beam himself comments:
Dad was a big man – over six feet tall – and he always said that he was most comfortable in a rocking chair, whether he was taking a break at the distillery or home relaxing on our front porch. It was his go-to seat, and everyone knew it. ………….. “Off Your Rocker” is also a tribute to Dad’s larger-than-life personality that he was so well known for. He always said exactly what was on his mind – cracking jokes and surprising people – and I remember our friends and family telling him he was “off his rocker” every now and again”.
Producer’s tasting notes From current Master Distiller Fred Noe
“I selected this batch for its sweet aroma and flavours of vanilla and wood from the white oak barrels that this batch was aged in. The liquid is well balanced with a big, warm finish that lingers for a good while, especially when sipped neat”.
