Old Forester 1984 Barrel Reserve is a remarkable 1000ml Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whisky boasting an impressive 48% ABV. This exquisite bourbon was first introduced in 1870 by George Garvin Brown and his half-brother John Thompson Street Brown, originally marketed as a medicinal product available exclusively in pharmacies and sealed to prevent counterfeiting. The name Old Forester is believed to be inspired by Dr. William Forrester, a doctor who frequently endorsed and provided this 'medicine' to his patients. Crafted by Old Forester Distilling Co., this bourbon stands out for its high corn content, which imparts a delightful sweetness to its aroma. Alongside classic bourbon notes, the nose reveals enticing scents of coffee, caramel, cinnamon stick, and orange, enhanced by complex nuances of nuts and berries. Distilled in 1984 and released in 1996 to commemorate the Atlanta Olympic Games, this bourbon was aged for 12 years, developing a rich and layered profile. The significant alcohol content of 48% contributes to its intense, full-bodied flavor profile, marked by a pleasant spiciness and sweetness. Prominent wood and vanilla aromas intertwine with hints of coffee, chocolate, and orange peel. It's advised to let the bourbon breathe for about half an hour before enjoying, allowing the rich flavors to fully unfold.
This bourbon is unique due to its high corn content, its 12-year aging process, and its release to honor the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta.
Expect aromas of coffee, caramel, cinnamon stick, orange, nuts, and berries, along with classic bourbon notes.
To fully appreciate its rich flavors, it is recommended to let the bourbon rest for about half an hour after pouring.
