Greetings all: I was left several bottles of 50 plus year old Bourbon... All bottled in Bond.. dating from 1952-1961... Old Forester and Old Grand Dad.. Stored in the dark and in a cool cellar until just last night.. I just opened a 1952 Old Forester. It is in perfect shape. The first thing I smelled was butter roasted Southern Pecans... The entire room filled with this aroma.. I poured a drop in an old crystal glass and swirled it around a bit.. The smell was like the combination of hot duck fat smeared on candy toasted pecans..
I have 2 bottles in this Space Age design... More to taste!
