Old Forester 2014 Birthday Bourbon 750 mL

The Old Forester 2014 Birthday Bourbon is a distinct expression within the sought-after annual series, crafted to honor the birthday of George Garvin Brown, the founder of Old Forester. The selection process for the Birthday Bourbon involves meticulous barrel choice to showcase the best of Old Forester’s rich tradition and dedication to quality.
For the 2014 release, the chosen barrels rested in the middle floors of Warehouses G and I, where temperatures remain more consistent throughout the year compared to the top or bottom floors of the warehouse. This moderate climate is crucial for a slow and steady maturation process, which allows the whiskey to develop a balanced profile, integrating the essence of the wood with the inherent flavors of the distilled spirit.
Aroma: Creamy soft vanilla bean, cinnamon spice and maple syrup, with a touch of candied orange peel.
Taste: Slightly drying at the start, opens into a sweet, creamy, oak led, complex flavor, with a caramelized citrus note.
Finish: Warming on the palate with a yeasty, cake-like mouth feel.
Size: 750 mL
