- Raided Score: 90
- Publication: Whiskey Raiders
- Excerpt: To me this is baby Bookers and it delivers very well. This bottle is age stated 9 years so really it should be big Bookers, but the flavor in Bookers is just right to me. Delicious and consistent.

Nose:
Hearty peanut brittle, caramel, toffee and huge clove and cinnamon. Smells hot but also smells like a good dead of winter dram.
-
Taste:
Hot but thick and sweet. Funky beam funk, lots of peanut brittle, oak, toffee and caramel. Heavy woodiness and spice also.
-
Finish:
Long and hot but not unbearably so. At 60% there's no getting around the heat. Sweet and really complex. I put this with other picks - all are slightly different but generally about the same in terms of quality.

Overall:
To me this is baby Bookers and it delivers very well. This bottle is age stated 9 years so really it should be big Bookers, but the flavor in Bookers is just right to me. Delicious and consistent.
