Old Forester - 1897 'Bottled In Bond' Kentucky Bourbon is produced in the United States using a mash bill built around grains such as corn, rye, and malted barley. The mash is cooked and fermented before being distilled, often in copper column or pot stills.

Maturation takes place in new, charred American oak barrels, where seasonal temperature swings drive spirit deep into the wood, extracting color and complexity. Warehouse management and barrel selection are critical, with blenders assembling lots that best represent balance and structure.

The result is a whiskey shaped by grain, oak, and time, reflecting both traditional craft and rigorous quality control.

Old Forester

Old Forester is a historic American bourbon brand with a legacy that dates back to 1870.

The brand's philosophy is a commitment to a consistent and classic Kentucky bourbon style. Old Forester is a straight bourbon that is known for its balance and robust flavor profile. It is a blend of whiskies from different warehouses and floors, a practice that is designed to maintain a consistent taste from year to year. The brand's portfolio includes a variety of expressions, from its signature 86 Proof to the highly-regarded 1920 Prohibition Style. Old Forester has earned a reputation for being a reliable and honest bourbon that is a symbol of American whiskey tradition.
