Old Forester 100 Proof 750ml

Finally found a bourbon that stays smooth even at higher proof—that balance of spice and softer notes makes it dangerously easy to sip neat. Perfect for an evening pour when you want something with character without the burn.

I was looking for a bourbon that has enough kick without being harsh, and this 100-proof definitely delivers. The balance between the spice and the softer notes is perfect for sipping neat.

For a 100-proof bourbon, it goes down surprisingly smooth—the spice hits upfront but melts into that softer caramel finish they mention. I’ve had pricier bottles that don’t hold up this well neat or with a single ice cube.
