Cask strength. Small batch. Booker's 2015-01 "Big Man" — the first named batch of 2015 from Jim Beam's Booker's program, one of the early named editions from the year the Noe family began giving personal names to each Booker's release.

The Booker's named batch program was established in 2016 to honor Booker Noe's legacy by connecting each release to a specific memory or story from the Noe family's Kentucky heritage. The 2015-01 "Big Man" is one of the early named releases, carrying a title that is a nod to Booker Noe himself — a physically imposing man whose presence was as large as his contribution to American whiskey.

As with all Booker's expressions, the Big Man is uncut at natural cask strength and unfiltered, bottled from a small-batch selection of Jim Beam's finest barrels aged in Clermont rickhouses. Now a decade from its original release.
