Booker’s Bourbon Batch 2016-03 “Toogie’s Invitation”

“Toogie’s Invitation” is the third release in the 2016 Booker’s Bourbon series, named in honor of a close friend of Booker Noe’s wife.

This batch reflects that same sense of warmth and richness. Aged just over six years and bottled at 127.7 proof, it offers a bold, full-bodied drinking experience true to the Booker’s tradition.
