Booker's Batch 2026-02 'Milkshake Batch' is the second release in Booker's 2026 collection — an uncut, unfiltered Kentucky straight bourbon aged 7 years, 6 months, and 12 days, bottled at barrel proof, 124.4 proof.
Booker's Bourbon is bottled uncut and unfiltered, built for rich, bold, full-strength flavor. The 'Milkshake Batch' name comes from a personal Noe family tradition tied to Booker Noe, who was known for adding bourbon to homemade chocolate malted milkshakes — a fun, nostalgic identity for a whiskey that stays unmistakably Booker's: big, full-bodied, oak-forward, and deeply flavorful. At 124.4 proof (62.2% ABV), the high strength brings intensity while the mature bourbon delivers a long, flavorful finish with classic Booker's depth.
