Old Forester signature: My new favorite!

[Eggman]

Howdy,

On a whim, I recently succumbed to temptation and purchased a bottle of Old Forester signature. Previously my pallet had been pretty much Jim Beam black label-which is plenty good. On to this Bourbon tyro's appraisal. Nose: Deep raisins and toffee, leather and moderate charred Oak. Taste: Big. smooth. Less Listerine tasting than JB black. Finish: Smooth, Corn with raisins and some chocolate. The only drawback is the $25 price at my local Thrifty Liquor. My new favorite; is 100 proof and seems rather Rye-heavy, fwiw.

It's a classic for a reason.

I'm drinking this right now and find it unique and delicious. This is a great bourbon when I'm tired of all the same profiles that are so forgettable.

This is another one of my fav's...

Sipping it right now...

But Beam Black is always acceptable!!!

[Wasatch]

Also having some right now, definitely one of my favs now as well. You really cannot beat it for the price.

This one took me 2 attempts to nail it's profile down and formulate an opinion on it. I've come to really enjoy it and I agree that it is an excellent value in bourbon and has a wonderfully unique taste.
