Why Gifted Pour recommends it
This is a bottle for the bourbon drinker who already knows the classics and would appreciate something that takes a different road. Old Forester 1910 is double-barreled at the Old Forester Distillery in Louisville, Kentucky. It is matured first in new charred American oak, then moved into a second, heavily charred new American oak cask. That second barrel shows in the glass as an intensely smoky aroma and woodier, spicier notes than a typical straight bourbon, with layers of oak, baking spice, caramel, vanilla and chocolate on a bold palate. The finish is long and warming, the kind that rewards slow sipping. It makes a thoughtful gift for a promotion, a milestone birthday or Father's Day, especially for someone who enjoys a quiet pour at the end of the evening. The story behind it, a nod to the brand's early 20th-century introduction of double-barreled bourbon, gives the recipient something to talk about as they pour. It also earns its place in a smoky Old Fashioned or a Boulevardier.

- Smoked brisket or barbecue — The whiskey's intense smokiness and charred oak echo the bark and smoke of slow-cooked meats.
- Dark chocolate dessert — Its chocolate, caramel and vanilla notes pick up the richness of a dark chocolate torte or truffles.
- Father's Day gift — A bold, smoky sipper with a story behind it suits a dad who enjoys a slow, neat pour of bourbon.
