Booker's Bourbon 2019-02 "Shiny Barrel Batch" - Nestor Liquor

Shiny Barrel Batch is the second batch of Booker's Bourbon for 2019. Its name is inspired by a tradition that took place in years past when rackhouse employees would sneak tastes of bourbon out from selected barrels. In doing so, it would cause the dust to be removed from these barrels when their bellies would rub up against them. These now shiny barrels from the center of the rackhouse would be where the good stuff was located, making it easy for Booker Noe to select what to bottle for his namesake bourbon. Batch 2019-02 matured for 6 years, 5 months, and 1 day and is bottled at 124 proof, uncut and unfiltered.
