Old Forester 1924 10 Year Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Old Forester 1924, a 10-year-aged bourbon, stands out in the lineup with its mashbill of 79% corn, 11% rye, and 10% malted barley, fermented with a unique yeast strain.

The nose offers classic Old Forester notes like baking spice, dark fruits, fresh peaches, and acetone-and-bubblegum, alongside unique additions of almond paste, Nutella, chocolate cake, graham cracker, and ginger.

Its full-bodied mouthfeel delivers a rich experience with cinnamon, graham cracker, black pepper, and maple notes. While initially not overly complex, its depth is expected to develop with air exposure.

The finish is slightly drying yet clean, warm, and long, reminiscent of an "Old Forester Birthday-esque" bourbon, making it delicious in every respect.

DISTILLERY NOTES:

OVERVIEW: "The Whiskey Row Series’ 1924 10 – Year – Old is a limited annual release celebrating another milestone in Old Forester’s storied history. During Prohibition, more than 200 distilleries were forced to close. Old Forester, however, continued operations because the federal government issued us one of six medicinal licenses, P-3. In 1924, Old Forester acquired barrels from closed distillers, with different mash bills, and bottled that liquid as Old Forester. This release commemorates that moment in time."
