This Booker’s Small Batch Bourbon, aged for 6 years, 3 months and 14 days, bottled in 2018, is nicknamed ‘Kathleen’s Batch’ after Kathleen DiBenedetto, whom in 2015 was inducted into the Kentucky Bourbon Hall of Fame. Mentored by none other than whiskey great, Booker Noe, Kathleen “helped pave the way for the premium bourbon category we all know and love today.” Fred Noe and the team at Booker’s/Jim Beam decided to honor their long time employee of more than 25 years earlier this year with her own Booker’s batch.
Like other batches of Booker’s, “Kathleen’s Batch” is unfiltered and uncut, making a strong bourbon for the strong woman it’s named after. It is a blend of seven barrels from five production dates and three warehouses.
