2021 Old Forester Birthday Bourbon (21st Edition)
104 proof 12 years Bourbon Old Forester Louisville, KY $129
Nose

Brown sugar and leather, rich and reminiscent of a leather store or newly conditioned boots, caramelized brown sugar with a slightly toasted quality

Palate

Overwhelming envelope of caramel and oak with leather and a hint of tobacco, well-aged profile with good sweetness that doesn't carry too far to the back end

Finish

Nice bite with a balanced approach, not overly drying, medium to long finish with sustained caramel and oak

Excellent
An exceptional and well-balanced birthday bourbon release with rich caramel, leather, and oak that showcases masterful blending by Jackie Ames.
