List of products by brand Old Forester

Old Forester is not just a bourbon, it's a monument to American history. Founded in 1870 by George Garvin Brown in Louisville, Kentucky, it was the first bourbon to be bottled and sealed, guaranteeing consistent quality at a time when spirits were often adulterated.

During Prohibition (1920-1933), Old Forester was one of the few distilleries allowed to continue production thanks to a government license for medicinal use. Today, the distillery is still owned by the Brown family, via the Brown-Forman group, and continues to influence the bourbon industry, in the same way as the Grant family with Glenfarclas in Scotland, which has preserved its independence and heritage generation after generation.

Old Forester has also pioneered a number of innovations: it was the first to introduce a Single Barrel, vintage bourbons and, in the 1960s, it launched an 86 Proof version (43°) in response to the cocktail boom in the USA. This made his whisky more accessible, while maintaining a classic 90 Proof (45°) bottling, the standard for American bourbon.

The brand is also renowned for its iconic editions, such as 1920 Prohibition Style, Statesman and Birthday Bourbon, highly sought-after by collectors.

With over 150 years of history, Old Forester embodies authentic, timeless bourbon, combining tradition and innovation.
