Tasting Notes
"This Single Barrel from Old Forester delivers on all the hallmarks of the brand's classic character. The nose is almost ebullient with its aromas ranging from toasted bread to vanilla extract to an earthy cardamom note. The palate is delicate yet spicy with rye bread and light honey setting the tone. Compact and rye-driven, this a bourbon build for cocktails."
