Booker’s “By the Pond Batch” 2025-02 is a robust Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey that reflects the soulful essence of Booker Noe’s personal moments. Distilled at the James B. Beam Distilling Co. in Clermont, Kentucky, and aged for 7 years, 2 months, and 29 days, this uncut and unfiltered batch is bottled at a powerful 63.25% ABV.
