Product Information

One of the oldest Bourbon brands available today, Old Forester dates back to the 1870s and is one of the fastest-growing American whiskey brands in the US.

Owned by Brown-Forman, the brand is on the receiving end of shed-loads of investment as its parent tries to take advantage of the Americana boom going on in spirits. A brand new distillery and visitor centre in downtown Louisville is set to open imminently and will boost capacity tremendously, expect new releases to follow.

Old Forester Bourbon was the first to be sold in America in sealed glass bottles, to avoid any unsavoury folks tampering with their carefully-considered recipe. It was first seen on shelves back in 1870, and the rye-rich bourbon continues to be enjoyed today.

72% Corn, 18% Rye, 10% Malted Barley.

Tasting Notes

Clove notes on the nose spice up a medley of citrus fruits, all softened with a delicate, sweet, floral honeysuckle character. The palate offers baking spices, citrus-fruit mix and shortbread sweetness before a soft, lingering finish with yet more spice.
