I'm not sure, but I think Old Forester was one of the first bourbons I ever purchased. Just like an old friend you may have not spoken to for years, this bourbon brand tends to get looked over when I'm shopping, but also like an old friend, when we do reconnect, we remember why we were friends in the first place, and it's as if no time has passed since our last meeting. Old Forester 1920 gets all the accolades among whisky geeks, and for the hardcore collectors, people go for the Birthday Bourbon. The 1910 gets a bit lost in the mix. Initially I was puzzled by the low 82 rating here, but an average 4.02 user rating. This is a "finished" bourbon, in this case meaning that matured Old Forester was put into a new toasted, heavily charred barrel. Why they're copying Woodford Reserve Double Oaked is anybody's guess, since they're both Brown-Foreman products, but either way, nice to have this as an option in the market. This is an easy drinking bourbon. If a mocha latte were turned into a whisky, this would be it. The nose is candy chocolate and coffee grounds enveloping dark caramels and brown sugars, like warm brownies right out of the oven. As it hits your palate, you're greeted with milk chocolate, coffee, cocoa powder, oak, and brown sugar. No Brown-Foreman banana in this one. This is desert in a glass. The finish is medium length, and I do wish it would last a little longer, as the flavors are o so nice. I do think I like this better than the Woodford Double Oaked. I'm not rating it higher, though. While the proof point is similar for both, this one feels a bit thin in the mouthfeel, whereas the Woodford is more mouth coating. At a similar price point, it's dealer's choice which one you should buy. They're both great, and both possess those rich, chocolaty notes. A fine desert bourbon if there ever was one. It'll certainly provide some comfort tonight with a few fingers in a rocks glass while I sit and watch the election returns come in. Red or Blue, I think everyone can agree that this is a delicious bourbon. Cheers!
