This was one of the most pleasant surprises of our recent three-day trip to the Bourbon Trail. Old Forester 100 Proof is a very affordable bourbon, going for as little as $20 in some places and widely available for under $25 -- right around, if not slightly under, the price point of Wild Turkey 101. To be honest, it may have supplanted Wild Turkey 101 as my favorite bourbon at this price point. Although Old Forester bottles its bourbons at a younger age than most distilleries (even its more expensive expressions may be 5 or 6 years old), they taste almost double that age, with loads of brown sugar, rich, slightly oily cornbread, sweet buttered corn, and a healthy dollop of spice.
