The first release in the Booker’s® Bourbon 2020 Collection is Booker’s® Batch 2020-01 “Granny’s Batch.” This batch is named after an important figure in Booker Noe’s life – his mom, Margaret Beam Noe. 

 
Known all her life as Granny Noe, Margaret was the youngest of Jim Beam’s children and the only one to have kids of her own. Although she never worked in the bourbon business herself, she certainly played an important part in keeping the bourbon family tradition alive from the fifth to sixth generation. She and her oldest son Booker were very close, and she was instrumental in getting him his first job at the distillery where he would go on to become Master Distiller, create his namesake bourbon (among others) and leave a lasting impact on the industry as a whole.
