This 10-year-old Bourbon celebrates Old Forester’s role during Prohibition as one of the few whiskies allowed to be bottled for medicinal use. The nose has touches of fudge, chocolate, leather, tobacco, and wood spices. The taste has notes of chocolate, cinnamon, graham crackers, cocoa beans, and a hint of honey. The finish is long with lingering spice and a touch of chocolate. (January, 2024)
