Old Forester has a long tradition as one of the standout names in American whiskey and bourbon reaching back to 1870 when Gavin Brown, a former pharmaceuticals salesman, bottled his first barrels of bourbon. As an homage, Brown Forman master distiller Chris Morris has teamed up with master taster, Jackie Zykan to craft the Old Forester 150th Anniversary Bourbon.
