Process & Profile

Booker’s Bourbon Batch 2026-02 “Milkshake Batch” is the second release in the 2026 Booker’s collection. Aged for 7 years, 6 months, and 12 days, it combines barrels from four production dates matured across four Kentucky storage warehouses before being bottled uncut and unfiltered at 124.4 proof.

The batch delivers the bold, concentrated style associated with Booker’s Bourbon, combining rich vanilla, caramel, charred oak, brown sugar, and warming spice. Its name honors Booker Noe’s tradition of adding bourbon to homemade chocolate malted milkshakes; the whiskey itself is traditional straight bourbon and is not milkshake flavored.
