Barrell Bourbon Batch 029
less tart
Old Forester 1924 is the fifth release in the brand's Whiskey Row Series. This Kentucky straight bourbon uses a different mash bill than OF's traditional recipe. Here, 79% corn, 11% rye, and 10% malted barley is used.
Aged for 10 years, the name and recipe marks a time during Prohibition when Old Forester acquired barrels from closed distilleries with different mash bills and sold it under the Old Forester name. Available nationwide beginning January 2024. (SRP $115).

Tasting Notes
"The nose is soft and sweet with toasted oak and light vanilla. There's a medium-plus body with initial taste feeling sweet. But the mid-palate contains flavors that lean tangy and chewy with the oak adding depth and taming the sweet notes. There's some apple pie in there as well mixed with the bitter char notes. The finish has a decent length to it, but it lacks complexity. "
