Description
Old Forester 2008 Birthday Bourbon
Barrels were all selected from the 6th floor of Warehouse H, an upper floor where heat builds. This made for a more robust, complex flavor profile. The taste is a combination of caramelized oak, ripe apple; vanilla and toasted coconut grace the palate.
