Old Forester 1897 is the second in Brown-Forman’s Whiskey Row series of Old Forester releases that commemorate momentous events in Brown Foreman’s (or in this case, whiskey in general’s) history.

There whiskey strikes a great balance of cooking spices with a little heat from the alcohol on the back of the tongue, making this a really nice sip. In fact, it’s one of the better rye whiskeys I’ve tasted in recent months, and I wish I’d picked up more of it. Very nice.
