Intro:
Bookers is a Beam/Suntory product that is released unfiltered and at casks strength.
-
Nose:
Theres more sugar notes, mainly brown sugar and molasses and a bit less pepper and wood.
-
Taste:
Sweeter and a more buttery profile. I really like this, and while it feels a bit hotter, its still very delicious. Lots of sweetness and vanilla + maple. There's a bit less peppery wood and the alcohol bite seems better blended despite the (minute) increase in proof.
-
Finish:
Longer and much hotter. This surprised me based on the mouth feel but this still wouldn't deter me from picking up this dram frequently.
-
Overall:
Still a great bottle. The profile is very consistent.
