Old Forester 1870 Bourbon
| Description: | Old Forester 1870 Original Batch 750 ML limited edition hard to find! Old Forester 1870 will commemorate the year Old Forester became the first batched bourbon. Prior to its release, bourbon was sold by the barrel causing quality and taste profile to vary. Old Foresters founder George Garvin Brown changed the industry by batching bourbon from three different distilleries to create a product that was consistent.To emulate Browns pioneering 1870 batching process, the 1870 Original Batch bourbon is comprised of barrels selected from three different warehouses with a different day of production as well as a different entry proof and maturation period. Historically, the original distilleries where the barrels came from were Atherton Distillery in Bardstown, Mattingly Distillery in Marion and Mellwood Distillery in LouisvilleThe expressions will be batched together to create this 90 proof product which represents the innovative technique developed by Brown which has become an integral part of the bourbon industry.Old Forester 1870 Original Batch Bourbon was not made in 1870. Rather, this is a whiskey that is the first release in what Old Forester is calling its new Whiskey Row Series. This unique series highlights our bourbons significant milestones and production innovations with each release. From the first batched bourbon to a post prohibition era style bourbon, the series will allow consumers to sip Old Forester as it was enjoyed in the late 1800s through the mid-1920s, says the company. |
