Product Description
Booker’s “Phantom Pipes” Batch 750ml is a powerful, uncut, and unfiltered Kentucky straight bourbon that exemplifies Booker’s signature house style—bold, intense, and unapologetically authentic. Curated by blackbook for its barrel-strength character and storied batch identity, Phantom Pipes is a standout release within the Booker’s lineage.
Named after the long-retired steam pipes that once ran through the rickhouses at Jim Beam—pipes you can’t see anymore but can still feel—this batch reflects the deep, concentrated influence of heat, wood, and time. Bottled straight from the barrel with no dilution, Phantom Pipes delivers massive flavor: dark caramel, vanilla, roasted peanut, and seasoned oak layered with warming spice and depth.
At blackbook, we reserve space for bourbons that don’t compromise. Booker’s Phantom Pipes is exactly that—raw, expressive, and built for serious bourbon drinkers who want the full barrel experience.
