A Timeless Tribute to the Founder’s Legacy

As America’s first bottled bourbon, Old Forester carries a storied pedigree. Old Forester 100 Proof honors the standard set by founder George Garvin Brown, who originally placed his signature on every bottle to guarantee its quality. Handpicked from select barrels, this expression captures the quintessential Old Forester house style—robust, spicy, and deeply satisfying.

Robust Proof and Uncompromising Balance

Bottled at an ideal 100 proof, this whiskey strikes the perfect sweet spot for modern bourbon lovers. The elevated proof provides enough structural warmth and intensity to carry rich wood sugars and baking spices, yet it remains smooth enough to enjoy comfortably neat or over a large rock. It is widely celebrated across the industry as one of the most reliable and versatile pours on the market.

An Exquisite, Multi-Layered Tasting Profile

Old Forester 100 Proof delivers a rich, inviting, and remarkably complex sensory journey:

• Nose: Bold and rich. Waves of intense vanilla bean, creamy butterscotch, and dark black cherry lead the way, accented by subtle hints of nutmeg and allspice.

• Palate: Immeasurably smooth and indulgent on the entry. Flavors of cane sugar sweetness, candied citrus, and black cherry are layered over a deep foundation of warming nutmeg, clove, and subtle barrel char.

• Finish: Long, warming, and clean. Notes of charred oak, warm baking spices, and burnt sugar linger pleasantly on the palate.
