Part of Jim Beam's "Small Batch Collection", this cask strength, non chill filtered bourbon was first given out as gifts by Booker Noe before being made available to the public in 1992. Aged between 6-8 years and bottled anywhere from 120-130 proof it's a bourbon with a bite. A new batch is released every few months.
This third US release of the Booker’s 2026 Collection is inspired by a phrase many people used to describe Booker, “Southern Thunder.” Growing up, Booker was described as, “strong as an Ox”, and quickly got put to work by the farmers in their town. As an adult, his deep resounding voice boomed across the distillery, and rumbled with laughter through the house and all around town.
