Old Forester George Garvin Brown Single Barrel 100 Proof
100 proof NAS Bourbon Old Forester Louisville, KY
Nose

Cherry, caramel, and vanilla with less banana than the 90-proof expression; sweet and inviting.

Palate

Sweet cherry and caramel with good structure; noticeably sweeter and less drying than the 90-proof, with pronounced peppery spice.

Finish

Peppery and warming with good length; a tingling, pop-rocks sensation from the rye content.

Above average
A well-balanced single barrel stepping up in proof with appealing cherry sweetness and satisfying peppery spice on the finish.
