Little Book Edition 3: The Infinite
Little Book Edition 3: The Infinite is the third edition of Freddie Noe's perpetual blend — a Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey built from whiskeys representing three generations of Noe family master distillers: Booker Noe, Fred Noe and Freddie Noe himself. The Infinite is designed to evolve: each year a portion of the blend is bottled and new whiskeys are folded in, so Edition III carries the living thread of Editions I and II forward with three distinct new bourbons layered in. Bottled at 118.3 proof (59.15% ABV) in a 750mL bottle at the James B. Beam Distilling Co. in Clermont, Kentucky. It is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.

Three Generations in One Glass
Booker Noe liked his whiskey big, bold and straight from the center cut of the rackhouse. His son Fred built a reputation on balance and sweetness. Freddie, the eighth generation, has spent his Little Book series experimenting at the edges of blending. The Infinite is where those three instincts meet: Booker's whiskey brings oak, smoke and char; Fred's brings creamy caramel, vanilla and butterscotch; Freddie's brings tobacco and dark fruit. Edition III keeps that family argument going — the blend is never finished, only bottled for a moment before the next generation of barrels joins it.
Tasting Notes
Oak, smoke and char open the glass, giving way to a sweet middle of caramel, vanilla and butterscotch, then Freddie's darker register — tobacco leaf and dark fruit — on a long, warm finish at barrel strength.

How to Enjoy
Neat first, with time in the glass — the blend keeps moving as it opens. A few drops of water pull the butterscotch forward; a large cube tames the proof for a slower sip. If you own Editions I or II, pour them side by side: tasting the blend evolve year over year is the whole point of The Infinite.
