- Description
- Old Forester's Statesman bourbon, bottled at 47.5%, showcases the high-rye mashbill character for which the Louisville distillery is known. Buttery leather, bold spice, and sharp citrus define the palate, underpinned by the sweetness typical of its wheated competitors. A versatile bourbon equally at home neat, with water, or in a cocktail.
