Old Forester 1870

Old Forester 1870 honors a significant milestone in bourbon history. Named after the year George Garvin Brown founded the brand, it reflects his revolutionary approach to bourbon production. Back in 1870, Brown pioneered the concept of batching whiskey from three distilleries to establish a consistent flavor profile, setting a new standard for quality. Today, Old Forester continues this tradition by blending barrels from three different warehouses and production dates, paying homage to its innovative roots. Distilled and bottled in the heart of bourbon country, Louisville, Kentucky, Old Forester 1870 is crafted at the historic Old Forester Distillery. This location thrives on Kentucky's pristine limestone-filtered water, ideal for producing high-quality bourbon. The careful selection and blending process give this bourbon its unique identity, rooted in both history and craftsmanship. Old Forester 1870 holds a special place in bourbon history as one of the earliest attempts to provide a reliable and consistent whiskey. Its expert blending and commitment to tradition make it a favorite among bourbon enthusiasts.
