$49.99
"AUTHENTIC BOURBON WITHOUT ONE DROP OF HYPE. Created in 1870, Old Forester is the only bourbon continuously distilled and marketed by the founding family before, during and after Prohibition. At 80 proof, Old Forester delivers a genuine bourbon experience, with rich, full flavor and a smooth character that is ideal for sipping neat, on the rock, with a splash of water or in a classic cocktail.
NOSE Sharp and sweet, with a strong floral character that swirls with hints of mint, rich tobacco leaf and vanilla. A touch of oak and pine provides a strong underpinning.
TASTE Sharp at first, but softens quickly, with hints of oak, sweet corn and rye grain character. Spicy, with soft vanilla and light orange notes.
FINISH Long, warm and slightly drying. Nice level of sweetness."

Excellent bourbon
New to the hobby, but loving it so far, this is a really nice whiskey to have in my bar. Easy sippin, with a nice clear ice cube or in an Old Fashioned...
Hey, this is way better than the price would suggest. Grab a bottle if you're a bourbon fan.
I'm not a huge fan of bourbon because most of the good stuff is over 60 bucks and the "cheap" ones are harsh. This is however, decent quality compared to the other offerings in the $40 range. Complex nose and taste that masks the heavy alcohol/turpentine undertones.
I drink this neat. Old Forester branded bourbon is often rated highly so I decided to try this and was pleasantly surprised. This is a good solid bourbon with all the classic flavours. It has a full fruity, vanilla flavour with oak and spice notes. There would be very few better bourbons at this price point. Excellent value for money.
