Even though the Old Forester brand has been around since the 1870s, it has only relatively recently gotten the appreciation it deserves. With the brand in decline in the 1970s, parent company Brown-Forman decided to ship much of the production to Japan. Lo and behold: we have a prime example of good but underappreciated export bourbon for an even better price, all the way from Japan, dusty and everything, from the early 1990s. And would you look at the label and bottle shape? It’s a beauty!

Product Review
The bouquet has a dry, grainy aroma which is accented by peppery/spicy scents. The palate entry is surprisingly sweet and corny, considering how dry the aroma is; the midpalate point is deep, corny sweet, sap-like and a bit syrupy. Ends up well and balanced, with a backnote of dried red fruit (raisins, prunes).
Hard hit by Prohibition, for decades American Whiskey has been primarily thought of as a Southern staple rather than a world class spirit. Now whether you're looking for a Rye, Bourbon, or even a Single Malt, you'll find a large range from a number of distilleries, from North to South and from the Pacific to the Atlantic coasts.
