Description

Old Forester is the only bourbon to be distilled pre, post and during prohibition by the same founding family. It has been available since 1870, when its creator George Garvin Brown, a young pharmaceutical salesman in Louisville, Kentucky, saw the need for a high quality whisky that met medicinal standards.

With $5500 in saved and borrowed money, Brown and his half brother started J.T.S Brown and Bro. They sold Old Forester in sealed glass bottles to assure its quality. Brown also provided a handwritten quality assurance guarantee on every bottle.

As America’s first bottled bourbon, it enjoys a heritage as rich as its taste.

Nose: Dark chocolate, clove and oak spice with an hint of fresh vanilla
Taste: Smooth caramel and leather, with a flash of black pepper, cinnamon, and orange citrus
Finish: Long, rich spice and eucalyptus character which fades into orange cream and caramel
