Old Forester 1924 10Yr Bourbon 750ml

The Old Forester Whiskey Row Series 1924 10-Year-Old is a remarkable limited-edition release that honors a pivotal chapter in Old Forester’s storied history. Aged for a decade and crafted with a new mash bill 79% corn, 11% rye, and 10% malted barley this distinguished bourbon pays homage to the resilience and ingenuity of the Prohibition era.

In 1924, Old Forester acquired barrels from distilleries that were forced to close during Prohibition, blending diverse mash bills into a timeless spirit. This expression is a tribute to that ingenuity, capturing the essence of a historic moment while delivering a bourbon rich in character and complexity. Bottled with care, it showcases the expertise and legacy that make Old Forester a cornerstone of bourbon heritage.

A rich and inviting bouquet of caramelized sugar, toasted oak, and ripe stone fruits, layered with hints of dark chocolate, baking spices, and orange zest. Full-bodied and complex, with waves of butterscotch, toffee, and vanilla complemented by cinnamon, nutmeg, and a subtle rye spiciness. The malted barley adds a creamy texture, while notes of dried cherry and tobacco provide depth and balance. Long and warming, with lingering flavors of caramel, toasted almond, and a gentle spice, tapering into a smooth, slightly smoky conclusion.
