Booker’s® Bourbon, one of the few bourbons available uncut and unfiltered, announces the release of the sixth batch in its 2015 limited-edition collection, Batch 2015-06, also referred to as “Noe Secret.” At an exclusive live tasting, Fred Noe, 7th Generation Master Distiller, and the Booker’s Bourbon Roundtable — a collection of esteemed bourbon experts, enthusiasts and writers — selected the latest expression. Booker’s “Noe Secret” batch is a testament to the robust recipe first created by founding distiller Booker Noe, 6th Generation Master Distiller and Fred Noe’s father.
“This batch’s name is a play on words, because Dad kept no secrets — in his life, or in the way he made his bourbon,” said Fred Noe. “He used only the best ingredients available, and made me promise that after he retired, the recipe for Booker’s would never change — and it hasn’t. Booker’s Batch 2015-06 offers fans the robust, full-bodied whiskey profile they’ve come to know and love, just the way Dad liked it.”
“Noe Secret” is the third and final batch this year to be selected by the Booker’s Bourbon Roundtable, with the guidance of Noe. The Panelists who helped select Batch 2015-06, “Noe Secret,” included the following members:
* F. Paul Pacult, Editor of F. Paul Pacult’s Spirit Journal and Founder of Ultimate Beverage Challenge

* Tony Sachs, Spirits Writer For Robb Vices and Serious Eats
* Guest Panelist: Kevin Sintumuang, Digital Director for The Wall Street Journal
