OLD FORESTER 1910 OLD FINE WHISKEY

Detailed Description
Old Forester 1910 Old Fine Whisky is the fourth and final limited edition whiskey in the brand’s Whiskey Row series first introduced in 2014. The Kentucky straight bourbon attempts to recreate a whiskey created in October 1910 when a fire caused the brand’s bottling line to be shut down. A vat of mature whiskey was ready to be bottled and so as not to further age in the barrels were placed into new, charred oak containers to rest while the bottling line was fixed. This recreation enters the second barrel at 100 proof and is placed into lightly toasted, heavily charred barrels to finish maturation. Bottled at 93 proof, this is available beginning October 2018.
