Booker’s 2018-01 "Kathleen’s Batch,"

Bright and pronounced caramel in many forms from rich caramel chews to caramel pudding. Then a spice backbone jumps out followed by butterscotch brown sugar vanilla wafers jalapeño cornbread mustard seeds and peach cobbler. A drop of water makes it even more complex with savory spices—sage dried parsley and a hint of rosemary meeting sweet: more vanilla and butterscotch. With or without water it finishes long and strong with a hint of pepper.
