The nose of the 2024 Birthday Bourbon is a bright fruit medley with accents of apricot and apple are complemented by rich spice cake and buttercream icing with undertones of sweet tobacco and warm oak. Juicy fruits jump out on the front of the palate with toasted oak and warm cinnamon spice rounding out the flavor to follow. Hints of caramel apple lead the finish with a long and flavorful mix of sweet tobacco, ground cinnamon, and cacao.
In 1870, George Garvin Brown was the first to seal his whisky, Old Forester, in a glass bottle. To commemorate his birthday, the First Bottled Bourbon annually releases a limited edition, vintage-dated expression: Birthday Bourbon. The September 2nd release markets the 23rd limited edition expression. Hand selected by Master Distiller- Emeritus Chris Morris and Master Taster Melissa Rift, this small batch bourbon offers a unique character and flavor profile that will never be replicated.
