Storm-Seasoned, Rarely Crafted  

Old Forester, established in 1870 by George Garvin Brown, forever changed bourbon history with the first-ever sealed bottles, guaranteeing authenticity and quality. Located in Louisville, Kentucky, this Brown–Forman-owned icon began as medicinal whiskey and grew into a heritage brand renowned for tradition, innovation, and impeccable craftsmanship. Its limited-edition releases showcase its dedication to excellence.  

The 2002 Birthday Bourbon stands out with a unique barrel treatment. Barrels were soaked in thunderstorms before filling, reducing the typical Angel’s Share and amplifying the bourbon's richness. The result is a layered profile of dark fruit, toasted oak, and caramelized sugar. Unique and collectible, it takes bourbon appreciation to new heights.
