Consistency, balance, and above all, quality. That's what drove our founder, George Garvin Brown, to seal Bourbon in a glass bottle - and sign his name to it as a personal guarantee - for the very first time way back in 1870. Today, Old Forester remains the distinguished choice for those who appreciate authenticity in their Bourbon. Individuals who wish to share a special place in this legacy have an exclusive opportunity to select a single barrel of Old Forester for purchase and personalization through our unique Single Barrel program.
