Lote de piel de cerdo de Booker's Bourbon 2020-03

Tasting Notes

Named for Booker Noe’s love of football, “Pigskin Batch” is a full-bodied, high-proof expression with immense complexity. Aged 6 years and 4 months, it opens with toasted oak, peanut brittle, and sweet vanilla on the nose. The palate is robust with brown sugar, seasoned wood, roasted nuts, and peppery heat, layered with hints of toffee and cinnamon. The finish is bold and lingering with warm oak spice and caramelized sugar.
