ULTIMATE SPIRITS CHALLENGE TASTING NOTES
“Soft orange, copper hue. Concentrated smells of cornmeal, caramel corn, newly tanned leather, grain kernel, and oak resin highlight the bouquet in a stylish manner. Flavor profile mirrors the bouquet, especially in the caramel corn/Cracker Jack aspect that’s the dominant in-mouth feature. Ends solidly, sweetly.”

“Old Forester 1870 Original Batch echoes George Garvin Brown’s original 1870 batching process. Back then, Brown batched barrels obtained from three distilleries to create a consistent flavor profile. To emulate that process today, we also select barrels from three warehouses, each barrel originating from a different day of production, with a different entry proof and a different age profile.

“The three expressions of Old Forester are then batched together to craft Old Forester 1870 Original Batch. This 90-proof bourbon will be minimally filtered, to honor the processes available to George Garvin Brown at that time.” -The Distillery
