The James B. Beam Distilling Co. announced the release of Booker’s Bourbon 2025-02 — the By The Pond Batch.
This batch is special to Beam 7th Generation Master Distiller Fred Noe, as it’s named after his father’s backyard pond, a place where he liked to spend sunny afternoons.
This batch was selected during a wet spring with record rainfall in Kentucky. The color of the bourbon reminded Noe of a Kentucky Derby horse, and he said it has an inviting nose.
“The first taste I put into my mouth was very nice and had a sweetness I enjoyed, so I took a second,” Noe said in a news release. “The second taste was nice, and the finish complemented and completed the experience so well. I feel sure my dad would have enjoyed sipping the By the Pond batch sitting by his pond feeding his fish, waiting for them to grow so he could enjoy eating them with some great Booker’s Bourbon.”
By the Pond Batch is made up of barrels from seven production dates that were aged in eight different warehouses. This batch is aged to 7 years, 1 month, and 20 days. The proof is 126.5, and the blend breakdown is as follows:
“We didn’t always have a pond in the backyard,” Noe said. “But then Dad decided he wanted one to raise catfish and bluegill, so we’d always have fresh fish for supper. And that was that. Next thing I knew, Dad put me and some buddies to work: digging the pond, filling it up, making it homey enough for those fish. After a few days, the pond Dad had dreamed up was right behind our house.”
Booker’s By the Pond batch has an SRP of $99.99.

About Booker’s Bourbon
Booker’s Bourbon was inspired by a 200-year-old family tradition and came to life when Booker Noe selected the first bottles of Booker’s as holiday gifts for his friends and family. With its instant popularity within Noe’s close circle, Booker’s Bourbon was soon after bottled and made available on shelves for everyone to enjoy. Booker’s Bourbon is one of the only bourbons bottled straight-from-the-barrel at its natural proof, which varies from batch to batch. It is crafted in small batches and aged for six to eight years in charred oak barrels, which are stored in the center of the rack house. For more information, visit https://www.bookersbourbon.com/.
