While we're in the middle of a move, we're revisiting some of our favorite conversations from the Brims & Barrels vault.

This episode features one of the most talked-about Booker's releases we've ever poured—a Booker's Reserve finished in El Tesoro tequila barrels.

Before we even opened the bottle, opinions were flying. Some bourbon fans loved the idea. Others thought Booker's had gone too far.

So we did what we always do: poured it, talked about it, and let the glass decide.

From rich caramel and toasted oak to agave sweetness and citrus notes, this pour challenged our expectations in the best way possible.

Sometimes the bottles you hesitate on become the ones you remember most.
