The Volstead Act of 1920 which initiated Prohibition in the USA granted permits to six distillers in Kentucky to continue to bottle bourbon for medicinal purposes. Through one of these permits, Old Forester continued to be produced as medicinal whiskey on Louisville’s famed Whiskey Row. It is the only bourbon continuously sold by the same company that has been available for sale before, during and after Prohibition.
During this time, all whiskies had to be bottled at 100 Proof. With a barrel entry proof of 100, the “angel’s share” would have created a 115 proof whiskey after maturation. To pay homage to this era, Old Forester presents 1920 Prohibition Style Bourbon at 115 proof to represent the rich flavour profile this bourbon had nearly 100 years ago.
Tasting Notes:
Aroma: An intense medley of cherry preserves, drippy caramel, dark chocolate, thickened maple syrup and seasoned oak spiciness.
Taste: Dark caramel coats layers of malt nuttiness and sweet graham cracker all warmed by green peppercorn and coriander spice brightened with a hint of cedar.
Finish: Tart apple crispness gives way to a long smoky finish full of toasted marshmallow, chocolate and graham cracker sweetness.
"Old Forester 1920 Prohibition Style presents a unique and delicious flavor profile, making it my favorite Old Forester release to date." - Nick Beiter, Breaking Bourbon
"If you want something with all the delicious dark fruit of the world. This is it. Dessert. Syrupy, medicinal cherry. Pepper and rye spice. Sweet notes try to hide a present leather. Woah. Chocolate heavy palate. Cherry mixes PERFECT with chocolate. Creamy caramel. Tasty bitter dark chocolate finish. Later in the glass I am finding a deep holiday winter-like vibe. A funky/nutty profile comes out and is still dancing around a beautiful oaky fruit medley." - Nick Anderson, Amongst The Whiskey
"Hard to believe this is over 100 proof, as you never sense the strength challenging you to find what’s next amidst the subtlety. Extremely long finish with cherry, cinnamon, and caramel. Value Pick." - Fred Minnick, Whisky Advocate (91 Points)
"Warming but not overpowering, and lengthy on the finish with echoes of both sweet fruit and dusky spices, it’s at once unusual and a classic example of how great bourbon ought to taste." - Christopher Null, Drinkhacker (95 Points)
"With the 1920 I feel what starts as a walk down the candy aisle is saved from becoming cloyingly sweet by a few bitter notes on the finish." - Whiskey Consensus
