Description

Old Forester Signature 100 Proof is the hand-selected barrel expression of America’s first bottled bourbon — handpicked from select Brown-Forman barrels for spicy, robust character and bottled at 100 proof to maintain the full flavor profile that George Garvin Brown’s founding philosophy demanded, the bourbon that bartenders and whiskey enthusiasts have reached for since 1870.

The Signature name comes directly from Old Forester’s founding tradition: George Garvin Brown signed every bottle he sold in 1870, and that tradition of personal quality accountability continues today. Handpicking from select barrels ensures that each batch of the 100 Proof maintains the spicy, full-bodied character that distinguishes it from standard production — more assertive than the 86-proof expression, with the oak and spice that the extra proof preserves from dilution. The bartender’s choice for decades: holds up in cocktails, rewards neat sipping, and delivers the full Old Forester house style without compromise.
