2015 Booker’s Roundtable Selected

Jim Beam has released the third Booker’s of 2015 and it is also a roundtable pick (what do I have to do get get a chair at that roundtable?!). If you’re not familiar with the roundtable read Chuck Cowdery’s post on how it works. TL;DR: Fred Noe (Beam’s Master Distiller and son of Booker Noe) and several other bourbon/whiskey writers sample different batches of Booker’s and select the best. The 2015-03 bottle label will feature Booker Noe’s favorite part of the rackhouse and choice cut of meat – “The Center Cut.” Here are the other important facts about this bottle:

Proof : 127.2

Age: 7 years, 2 months and 28 days

Retail: $55

Booker’s Roundtable 2013-06 is still one of my favorite bourbons to drink and I’m sure this panel of whiskey enthusiast has done a great job selecting this batch.
