Old Forester 1897 Bottled in Bond

Old Forester’s 1897 recalls the year of the bottled-in-bond law, which guaranteed the authenticity of bottled whiskey. It meets those rules and is bottled at 50% ABV. It is more intense than 1870, with caramel, ripe fruit, spice and toasted oak, and a rich texture. A classic, full-bodied bourbon. It works neat, with an ice cube or in classic cocktails such as the Old Fashioned.
