Booker’s Bourbon Announces Phantom Pipes Batch

Booker’s Bourbon, from James B. Beam Distilling Co., has announced the fourth release of 2025: Phantom Pipes Batch.

Each release of this whiskey has a unique name that alludes to the people, places and/or history behind the brand. This batch references a maze of pipes discovered in the rafters of the Boston, KY, distillery that led . . . nowhere. Turns out, those “phantom pipes” were remnants of Booker Noe’s restless tinkering, an engineer’s playground.

As Fred Noe recalls, “Dad was always connecting one thing to another, chasing the next great idea with whatever he had on hand.”

This batch comes bottled uncut and unfiltered at 126.4 proof after more than seven years in the rackhouses. The result is rich vanilla on the nose, a full-bodied spice on the palate and a long finish, according to distillery notes.

Booker’s “Phantom Pipes Batch” is made up of barrels from five different production dates. The youngest barrels in the batch are aged 7 years, 6 months, and 15 days.

The blend breakdown is as follows:

22% came from the fourth floor of 7-story warehouse 3

11% came from the fifth floor of 7-story warehouse 1

30% came from the sixth floor of 7-story warehouse G (Waterfill)

9% came from the third floor of 7-story warehouse O

28% came from the fifth floor of 7-story warehouse 4

The suggested retail price is $99.99 per 750-ml. bottle.

This follows the recent launch of Knob Creek 21 Year Old.
