What it’s like

Old Forester prides itself on being the bourbon brand with the longest history of uninterrupted sales, since the late 19th century, and it was one of the few authorised for sale for medicinal purposes during Prohibition. Its classic version is smooth and fruity, with banana, caramel, vanilla and spice. It is a simple, affordable bourbon, very versatile for cocktails and for every day.

Nose
Ripe banana, caramel and vanilla, with soft spice and oak.
Palate
Smooth and fruity. Toffee, fruit, cinnamon and light wood, with some cereal.
Finish
Medium, sweet and spicy, with a hint of caramel and banana.
