2017 World Whisky of the Year - Awarded by Jim Murray, the Whisky Bible

Booker's Rye 13 Year Old was produced from what is likely to be the first and the last rye placed into barrels by the legendary Booker Noe. Booker barreled this spirit in 2003 one year before his death in 2004, it finished ageing and was bottled under the guidance of his son Fred Noe. The rye was aged in one of Booker Noe’s favorite rack houses and was bottled uncut and unfiltered.

Booker's Rye 13 Year Old is a limited-edition one-off release and the first-ever rye whiskey released by Booker’s Bourbon brand. It was named “World Whisky of the Year” by Jim Murray’s Whisky Bible 2017, after being tasted alongside 1,247 new whiskies. It was lauded “a simply a staggering example of a magnificent rye showing exactly what genius in terms of whiskey actually means.”
