Booker’s has announced the release of the third batch in their 2022 collection, Booker’s Bourbon 2022-03 “Kentucky Tea Batch.”

This batch is named after Booker Noe’s signature drink, which he referred to as Kentucky Tea. Booker shared that there was no reason to flavor his water with tea leaves when he could flavor his water with bourbon. Booker would add one part bourbon to four parts water and enjoy his Kentucky Tea with dinner.

Booker’s “Kentucky Tea Batch” has been aged for 7 years, 4 months, and 14 days, and is bottled at 126.5 proof (63.25% ABV). Booker’s “Kentucky Tea Batch” is described as having “a golden amber color and a dark, sweet vanilla aroma,” with “a rich sweet vanilla taste with a lingering finish.”

Booker’s Bourbon 2022-03 “Kentucky Tea Batch” is now available nationwide for a suggested retail price of $89.99 for a 750 mL bottle.
