Luxury Whiskey

Distilled in the spring of 2002, this bourbon matured on the first floor of warehouse P. Like last year, it’s bottled at 101 proof, where it will remain going forward.

30 years ago, my dad, Booker Noe, released the first batch of his namesake Booker’s® Bourbon as his vision of what the perfect whiskey should be. In honor of Dad’s legacy and in celebration of 30 years of the damn good whiskey he created, we’re celebrating in the best way we know how – by releasing a special extra-aged, limited edition Booker’s® Bourbon. -Fred Noe, Beam Family’s 7th Generation Master Distiller Over the last few years, the floors of some of our rackhouses in Clermont were in need of redoing, so we pulled up the floorboards. We thought it would be a shame to throw away so much history, so we stored them for something special. Each box of Booker’s® 30th Anniversary Bourbon is made from the reclaimed wood of those floors – the same floors walked by legends Booker and Fred Noe as they selected batches of Booker’s.

A meticulous distilling process and insistence on only the finest ingredients ensure that every sip of The Macallan Sherry Oak 18 Years Old provides unparalleled depth and complexity. Decadent notes of orange, vanilla and ginger meld luxuriously with toasted oak and clove, in this exceptional whisky. The finish is warm and lingering.

Discover Redbreast 27 Year Irish Whiskey

Expressly produced according to the exclusive Van Winkle family wheated-recipe and specially selected from barrels in the heart of the aging warehouses, this bourbon remained undisturbed for 15 years to age in deep-charred heavy oak untouched by human hands, unhurried by time. Tasting Notes: An elegant and sweet aroma with caramel corn and vanilla. Features big flavor of leather, oak and complex fruitiness. Finishes smooth with notes of spice and oak tannins.

This bourbon whiskey is bottled at nearly barrel proof. Just a splash of Kentucky limestone water is added after a decade of aging. Rich, yet smooth, this bourbon takes a back seat to none. Tasting Notes: A sweet vanilla nose with caramel, pecan and oak wood. Smooth, mellow flavor consisting of robust wheat, cherries and oak. Features a long, smoky wheat finish with hints of fruit, spice and oak tannins.

This handsome Irish whiskey is the work of Midleton, bottled for the Dair Ghaelach series! Dair Ghaelach translates to 'Irish oak', and this single pot still whiskey was first matured in American oak bourbon barrels before a finishing period in virgin native Irish oak hogsheads, made with wood sourced from the Knockrath forest.

Created using only first-fill Sherry-seasoned oak casks, handpicked by The Macallan Master Whisky Maker from less than 1% of the casks maturing at the distillery. Exquisite and woody with opulent notes of vanilla, dried fruit and spice.

Discover Jameson Rarest Vintage Reserve

At 25 years old, Barrell Craft Spirits Whiskey offers the depth of highly matured whiskey complemented by a Sercial Madeira barrel finish. The underlying dry nuttiness of Sercial Madeira adds a new dimension to the whiskey that is exceptional. Appearance: Golden Brown with goldenrod highlights and umber lowlights. Nose: Opens on medjool dates, honeydew melon, butterscotch and light molasses. The nose then expands in many directions at once, evolving additional fruit in the form of Montmorency cherry and dried apricot; floral aromas of apple blossom and fennel pollen; mineral notes of gravel, sea shells, and salt; and some notes that only come from a long, slow maturation, such as Palo Cortado sherry, mastic, and unlit cigar. Palate: Halva, molasses and chocolate syrup make for a sweet entry, but they’re quickly balanced by tart fruit: kiwi, dragon fruit, and meyer lemon. A subtle array of herbs and spices lend the palate depth, evolving cinnamon, juniper, and anise hyssop. Finish: Deeper and darker than the palate, its pastry notes are fuller, like oatmeal cookie and ganache; its fruit notes less piquant, such as purple plum, husk cherry and lemon sherbet. Flavors of rosemary and nutmeg recall the spicy and herbaceous notes from before, while a salty touch seems to magnify flavors and make the mouth water for another sip.

George T. Stagg built the most dominant American distillery of the 19th century, during a time known as the Gilded Age of Bourbon. Today one of the most sough after bottle in the Antique Collection bears his name. This bourbon is left to age for no less than 15 years and is then bottled uncut and unfiltered, creating a robust bourbon whiskey that boasts bold character, reminiscent of the man himself. This extremely hearty whiskey ages in new charred oak barrels for no less than 15 years. Straight out of the barrel, uncut and unfiltered, the taste is powerful, flavorful and intense. Open it up with a few drops of water, sit back and ponder the wonders of the universe. Tasting Notes: Lush toffee sweetness and dark chocolate with hints of vanilla, fudge, nougat and molasses. Underlying notes of dates, tobacco, dark berries, spearmint and a hint of coffee round out the palate.

Discover Benromach Single Malt 25 Year

Discover Ardbeg Kelpie Cmt Release

Thirty Year Old is a beautifully mature, full bodied and complex expression of Highland Park, created from three distinct cask types all laid down in 1989 and earlier years. Carefully chosen first-fill bourbon casks impart sweet notes of vanilla and honey with hints of citrus; first-fill sherry seasoned casks add rich layers of luscious fruit and warm spice; and finally, a small but critical selection of refill casks deliver new and harmonious layers of flavor. Highland Park 30 Year Old is a finely balanced and intriguingly complex whisky deserving of a place of honor among the greatest whiskies ever produced. A perfect 30th birthday or 30th anniversary gift, and a recommended addition to a well-curated whisky collection.

Discover Ardmore 30 Yr

Like its 15 year old counterpart, The Balvenie Single Barrel 25 year old was the product of individually bottled traditional whisky oak casks ~ these ones having spent a further decade in our warehouses. Each cask formed a limited edition of no more than 250 hand-numbered bottles. The aroma of Single Barrel has the complexity of an aged whisky with a symphony of sweet, honeyed, oak notes, overlaid with a fragrant, fruity bouquet. On the palate the initial dryness immediately changes to a honeyed burst of flavour that has butterscotch and toffee notes, rounded off with vanilla oakiness.
