Old Forester Bourbon was the first to be sold in America in sealed glass bottles to avoid unsavoury folks tampering with their carefully-considered recipe. It was first seen on shelves in 1870, and the rye-rich bourbon continues to be enjoyed today. Overall: Bourbon doesn't get made for over 140 years without it being pretty great, so it's unsurprising that Old Forester is, well, pretty darn great! Finish: Juicy orange and spicy oak continue on the finish. Palate: Starts quite sweet with caramel and maple syrup, though swiftly develops intense oaky elements and hints of pine resin. Sweetness returns slightly on the mid-palate. Nose: Top notes of orange blossom and cedar. Soon, the classic rye bread warmth and a lingering waft of buttered pancakes are developed.
