Booker’s 2023-04 “The Storyteller Batch” Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey (750 mL) is the fourth and final release in the 2023 Booker’s series, named in honor of Booker Noe’s legendary gift for storytelling—especially when it came to bourbon, family, and Kentucky life. Aged for 7 years, 1 month, and 10 days, and bottled uncut and unfiltered at a fiery 127.8 proof (63.9% ABV), “The Storyteller Batch” is bold, rich, and full of character—just like the man himself. This batch captures the essence of classic Booker’s: deep oak, roasted peanut, and layers of sweet, spicy heat.
Available now at Whiskey Caviar, The Storyteller is a tribute to tradition, legacy, and the stories that live in every glass of great bourbon.
