Old Forester, Bourbon Whiskey (86 Proof)
Old Forester, Bourbon Whiskey (86 Proof) is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
As the first bourbon ever sold exclusively in sealed glass bottles back in 1870, Old Forester is a true heritage name in American whiskey. The 86 Proof expression is their most approachable bottling—an inviting, well-balanced bourbon made for sipping, mixing, or just about anything in between.
On the nose, expect caramel, vanilla, and ripe banana with hints of baking spice and light oak. The palate is smooth and mellow, offering brown sugar, toasted nuts, and a touch of cinnamon, finishing with gentle heat and just enough structure to keep things interesting. It’s aged in new charred oak barrels and bottled at 43% ABV, striking a crowd-pleasing balance between flavor and finesse.
Perfect for an Old Fashioned, a classic highball, or simply neat after a long day. Old Forester 86 isn’t flashy—but it’s consistent, affordable, and rooted in bourbon history.
