We’re delighted to introduce into our portfolio the Booker’s Limited-Edition Batch Collection from 2015 that are in stock and exclusively available here at The Old Barrelhouse. These bottlings have become extremely rare as collectors and connoisseurs snap them up before they’re even made available in liquor stores so here’s your chance to own a piece of highly collectable Kentucky history.
‘The Center Cut’ is the third release from the 2015 collection and is named for two things: first, the central area of the ageing rack-house where the sunlight, temperature and surrounding conditions combine perfectly for prime whisky development, and second – the centre cut of meat Booker Noe favoured and cured on his own. An image of his favourite cut of meat is also displayed on the front label of the bottle.
Booker Noe’s son Fred Noe is the current Master Distiller of Jim Beam and the great grandson of Jim Beam himself and this is the first batch in the 2015 series that Fred Noe selected with the help of the legendary Booker’s Bourbon Roundtable, a collection of esteemed bourbon experts, enthusiasts and writers. It’s also the oldest bourbon whiskey in the 2015 collection been aged for over 7 years and 2 months at a huge 63.6%alc.
From current Master Distiller Fred Noe
“A nice chestnut color that reminds me of the beautiful thoroughbred horses that race here in Kentucky. The nose on this batch has vanilla and a lot of the oak from the barrels. There’s a very intense flavor that explodes in your mouth and it leaves a sweet, long, pleasant finish.”
