OLD FORESTER’S WHISKEY ROW

To emulate George Garvin Brown’s original batching process, Old Forester 1870 Original Batch is crafted by selecting barrels from three warehouses, each barrel originating from a different day of production, with a different entry proof and a different age profile that are then batched together and minimally filtered.

AROMA: Clove notes spice up a medley of citrus fruits (orange, grapefruit, blood orange), all softened with a delicate, sweet, floral honeysuckle character.

TASTE: Baking spices (clove, cinnamon, nutmeg) flow into a citrus-fruit mix and shortbread sweetness.

FINISH: Soft, with lingering fruit and spice character.

AROMA: Interlaced layers of buttercream, sticky toffee, cedar, and apricot.

TASTE: Smooth, well rounded mingling of sweet oatmeal raisin cookie and milk chocolate leading into caramel corn and evolving spice.
