Old Forester is a well-known American bourbon whiskey brand produced by the Brown-Forman Corporation. While I don’t have specific information about an Old Forester Single Barrel produced or selected for Mac Brown (Brown Family) in May 2013, I can provide you with some general details about Old Forester Single Barrel and its characteristics:
– Old Forester Single Barrel: Old Forester Single Barrel is a premium expression within the Old Forester range. Each bottle is filled from a unique barrel, resulting in slight variations in flavor between different barrels.
– Production: Old Forester Single Barrel is made using a mash bill primarily composed of corn, along with rye and malted barley. It is distilled and aged in new, charred oak barrels.
– Proof: Old Forester Single Barrel bourbons typically have a higher proof than the standard Old Forester expressions. The exact proof can vary depending on the specific barrel, but it is typically around 90 proof (45% alcohol by volume).
– Flavor Profile: Old Forester Single Barrel offers a rich and robust flavor profile. It often features notes of caramel, vanilla, oak, baking spices, and a hint of fruitiness. The extended aging process contributes to the development of complex flavors and a smooth mouthfeel.
– Availability: Old Forester Single Barrel releases can vary in availability and are often limited editions or hand-selected by specific individuals or organizations. The specific release you mentioned, produced or selected for Mac Brown (Brown Family) in May 2013, may have been a unique bottling or selection for a specific event or occasion.
