Founded by George Garvin Brown in 1870, Old Forester was the first bourbon to be exclusively sold in sealed glass bottles to guarantee quality. This innovative step revolutionized the American whiskey industry, establishing a legacy of integrity and craftsmanship that continues under the Brown-Forman family today.
Crafted at the historic Louisville distillery, this bourbon replicates the original method of blending barrels from three different warehouses to achieve a consistent signature style. It remains a hallmark of Kentucky's longest continuously operating bourbon brand.
