Tastes

This is Goldilocks for Old Forester … not too spicy, not too hot, not too pedestrian, and not too flat. Just right in all aspects. The 110 is a perfect proof point over many of their standard offerings and just below 1920’s. The 150 series compares nicely with the age and flavor profile but is just a bit too hot. Velvety mouthfeel with caramel as the top flavor. The finish and KY hug is significant for its proof point but ends at just the right time. This is a top 10 pour all time for me.

Too sweet but not a fan of finished bourbons. Corn and port flavor too overwhelming. Short finish. Good for non-seasoned bourbon drinkers who like a “smooth” bourbon.
