About the Spirit

Old Forester 1920 Prohibition Style is a bold and historic bourbon that celebrates the resilience of whiskey-making during a challenging period in American history. Crafted by Brown-Forman, this bourbon hails from Louisville, Kentucky, a region renowned for its rich bourbon heritage. The 1920 Prohibition Style name honors the fact that Old Forester was one of six distilleries granted a permit to produce medicinal whiskey during Prohibition, an era when most bourbon production was halted. Bottled at 115 proof to reflect the barrel-proof strength typical of bourbons in the 1920s, Old Forester 1920 stands out for its dedication to authenticity and craftsmanship. This bourbon is part of the Whiskey Row Series, which celebrates the brand's remarkable contribution to American bourbon through the decades. The barrels used in 1920 Prohibition Style are carefully selected and masterfully blended, ensuring a spirit that is as refined as it is distinctive. Steeped in history and crafted with care, Old Forester 1920 appeals to bourbon enthusiasts seeking a premium, high-proof whiskey with a story to tell. Whether you’re new to bourbon or a seasoned connoisseur, this bottle offers a connection to the enduring spirit of Kentucky bourbon-making.
