Old Forester 2025 Birthday Bourbon Whiskey (750mL) — 25th Anniversary Limited Release Featuring a Historic Sweet Mash Process

Celebrate one of bourbon's most anticipated annual releases with Old Forester 2025 Birthday Bourbon. Marking the 25th edition of the iconic Birthday Bourbon series, this highly allocated release honors founder George Garvin Brown with an extraordinary expression that breaks from tradition. For the first time in the history of the series, the whiskey was produced using a sweet mash fermentation process instead of Old Forester's traditional sour mash, resulting in an exceptionally silky and fruit-forward profile.

This limited-edition bourbon is 12 years old, bottled at 92 Proof (46% ABV), and crafted from 210 barrels distilled on April 5, 2013, then aged in Warehouse K on Floors 1 and 5. Rich layers of caramel, vanilla, orchard fruit, baking spices, and toasted oak make this one of the most distinctive Birthday Bourbon releases to date. Produced in extremely limited quantities, it remains one of the year's most coveted bottles for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
