Just wondering if any of you are familiar with the Whiskey Row lineup from Old Forester. I picked up the first in this series last night on a whim, the 1870 Original Batch. For a 90 proof it was surprisingly good...much bolder than expected. It was sweet but more in a spicy-sweet than a straight sugar sweet. My bottle has a deep reddish-amber, and the finish was of moderate length and, while not a "punch you in the face" type of burn, it was satisfactory, especially for this entry level variant to the Whiskey Row Series.
Now I look forward to trying the 1897 and the 1920 expressions.
What were your thoughts on these?
