Booker's Rye Big Time Batch' Limited Edition 13 Year Old Straight Rye Whiskey Tasting Notes

Nose: Rich caramel and campfire smoke early on; it’s robust, but balanced. Crème brûlée with a sultry smokiness.

Palate: Raw honey with a dusting of nutmeg and a Scotch ale malt profile that’s creamy and mouth-coating. Alas, a heavy bite hides much, needing water to open up. A drop adds complexity, spice, vanilla, chocolate, and licorice.

Finish: Lingering finish.
