In-Store Notes
To emulate George Garvin Brown’s pioneering 1870 batching process, Old Forester 1870 Original Batch bourbon is comprised of barrels selected from three different warehouses with a different day of production as well as a different entry proof and maturation period. These expressions are batched together to create this 90-proof product which represents the innovative technique developed by Brown which has become an integral part of the bourbon industry.
Old Forester Description
Nose: Very bright and lively with its fruity and floral notes at the forefront. Underneath, vanilla and caramel provide the base and a delightful amount of oak is mixed in.
Palate: This a bourbon that actually tastes like it smells. It’s a delightful mingling of vibrant fruit flavours. The sweetness from the carmel and an agreeable amount of oak makes this an easy to enjoy bourbon.
Finish: Despite a light body and thin mouthfeel, it has a really nice finish. As the sweetness trails off it finishes with cinnamon, nutmeg and a mix of other baking spices. A light amount of oak can also be tasted throughout the finish and helps provide a lasting aftertaste.
