Old Forester Single Barrel 100 Proof NV Mojave Ember Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Old Forester Single Barrel 100 Proof “NV Mojave Ember”

Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

100 Proof | 750mL

There’s something poetic about a single barrel. No committee. No blending safety net. Just one cask, one story, one bold fingerprint of Kentucky oak.

This Old Forester Single Barrel 100 Proof “NV Mojave Ember” burns with desert confidence. Bottled at a balanced yet commanding 100 proof, it delivers structure, depth, and that unmistakable Old Forester richness that’s been turning heads since 1870.

🥃 Tasting Notes

Nose: Warm caramel, toasted oak, and dark cherry, with a faint ribbon of vanilla bean drifting through like heat off asphalt at dusk.

Palate: Brown sugar and baking spice up front, layered with roasted nuts and molasses. Mid-palate brings a touch of cocoa and subtle citrus zest.

Finish: Long, steady, and dry with lingering oak and a whisper of peppery spice.

 This barrel feels tailored for Nevada nights. Big enough to impress the seasoned bourbon drinker. Refined enough for someone stepping into single barrels for the first time.

How to Enjoy

Start neat. Let it stretch its legs in the glass. Add a single cube if you want to unlock a softer wave of caramel and spice.

If you’re feeling adventurous, build a Desert Manhattan:

• 2 oz NV Mojave Ember
• 1 oz quality sweet vermouth
• 2 dashes chocolate bitters
  Stir over ice, strain, garnish with a Luxardo cherry. Velvet with an edge.

Pairing Suggestions

•  Smoked brisket or grilled ribeye
• Dark chocolate with sea salt
• A well-earned victory

Old Forester is known as the first bottled bourbon, and this single barrel keeps that legacy standing tall. No shortcuts. No dilution of character. Just a straight shot of Kentucky craftsmanship dressed in Mojave attitude.

For collectors, for purists, for those who know that a single barrel is never just a bottle. It’s a moment captured in oak. 🔥🥃
