The third release of the Booker's Bourbon 2025 Collection is Booker's Batch 2025-03 "Jerry's Batch." This batch is named after Jerry Dalton, the only Master Distiller we've ever had at Beam who isn't part of my family. But while he isn't Beam by blood, he might as well be. Jerry made one hell of an impact on our distilling process. And on me. And for that I'll always be grateful. My dad, Booker Noe, and I first met Jerry when he moved into the house behind ours after he took a job at a local distillery as a chemist. Over the years he and Dad became close friends, and Jerry eventually came to work with us at Beam, helping us deepen our understanding of distilling. Jerry cared so deeply about our business and our bourbon, that when Dad retired, he stepped up as Master Distiller for a few years. I wasn't quite ready for the job yet, but during that time Jerry made it his job to see that I'd be following in Dad's footsteps soon enough. Most of what I know about the science of our craft, I owe to Jerry. He used to write up these tests for me every few weeks to review the chemistry I'd been learning. He'd grade them by hand and go over the answers with me to make sure I understood everything. And more importantly to make sure I was ready to keep making the best bourbon out there. For years, I just assumed Jerry was already part of the Bourbon Hall of Fame, but he only got inducted last summer. He's a real humble guy who never liked making too much of a fuss, but he's damn worth celebrating. Beam wouldn't be what it is without him, and I couldn't be prouder to honor him with this batch. This product delivers all the notes you would expect of a Booker's offering; big, bold flavors of vanilla, caramel and oak on a full-bodied palate with subtle background notes of butterscotch and apple. All of this makes "Jerry's Batch" such an easy sipping whiskey that all you'll need is a comfortable spot in the shade to enjoy it.

The palate is searingly hot, but underneath that heat there’s a lot to love, including dark chocolate, barrel char, black coffee, and more dark dried fruit. … making this a big bourbon befitting the Big Easy.
The nose is rich with butterscotch, vanilla, orange, and Creamsicle, with a dusty, earthy backbone adding depth. The palate starts similarly sweet, with frosting, maple syrup, and dark chocolate. … This has real depth and, despite the proof, ample finesse.
Somewhat closed at first on the nose, but the palate is very lively, with vanilla cream, caramel, baked raspberries, cola, and toffee … It’s a hot one for sure, but the flavors still manage to assert themselves.
