Old Forester Birthday Bourbon 2018

the after tast is amazing the boldness is spot on

It’s good. Not great. I tasted in a blind and ranked it 5 out of 6. Get light fruit notes on the nose. It has a light mouth feel. Drinks easy. The finish is where this one shines. Lasts a long time for this proof of bourbon. Initial apricot with back end spice. Not sure this one is worth the price or hype.

Chocolate, vanilla, and cherry. Closed out half a bottle in Seattle :) it’s different than any other Brown Forman products I’ve had, and I’m looking forward to the day I can crack my bottle open.

bright fruit. citrus. balanced. minimal heat. dries the tongue on the finish. well done Jackie!

Note: apricot, very fruity from far away, vanilla, orange, magic marker(?), almond, cherry and oak Body: thin, light, easy Palate: light on spice and oranges Finish: delayed warmth and interesting but not complex. Note: I really wanted to love this one but in the end it was easy to drink and simple. I do very much like it but perhaps not robust enough or distinctive enough to get into the love it collection. But I would buy this.

This was by far the best bourbon I’ve ever had. Pretty sure I reviewed it under a different title. I’ll try and merge this and edit it together

Strong AF
