Old Forester 1897 BiB

In this episode, we dive into the rich history and distinctive qualities of Old Forester 1897 Bottled in Bond. Crafted to honor the U.S. Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897, this bourbon is a testament to quality and tradition. We'll explore how this act revolutionized the whiskey industry by ensuring that each bottle met strict standards: aged in a federally bonded warehouse for at least four years, produced in one distillation season by one distiller at one distillery, and bottled at 100 proof. Join us as we savor the robust flavors of this bourbon, with its intense caramel aroma, rich vanilla and roasted coffee notes, and a finish of deep fruit, spice, and oak layered over dark caramel and vanilla. We'll also discuss the historical significance of Old Forester, America's first bottled bourbon, and its role in shaping the bourbon landscape we know today. This is a public episode.
