Additional Notes

Old Forester 1910 celebrates the overcoming of a sudden fire that ripped through the bottling line of Old Forester on October 2nd, 1910. The second barreling of today's 1910 bourbon (7 to 9 months) reflects the second barreling that occurred after the fire when whiskey, ready to be bottled, was instead stored in a second barrel.
