* Note: This article uses information from the U.S. Department of the Treasury Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB). Whiskey labels are approved by the TTB weeks or months ahead of their release and public announcement, so details about pricing and availability aren’t available yet. Furthermore, any proof statements on the label may be placeholders and might change before the official release announcement. However, everything else on the label will appear as it does here, so this gives us a great early look at an upcoming release.
Expected to be the first addition to the Whiskey Row Series since 2018’s 1910 Old Fine Whiskey, Old Forester 1924 10 Year Old is an upcoming release from Old Forester.
Outside of limited expressions such as Old Forester Birthday Bourbon and the Kentucky-only Old Forester President’s Choice, this is the only other product from the distillery to have an age statement.
Like other expressions in the Whiskey Row series, this release marks a hallmark event in Old Forester’s history. In this case, 1924 marks the year that Owsley Brown first bottled sourced barrels with the name Old Forester and this release is meant to commemorate the 100th anniversary of that occasion.
