In this episode of Aussie Bourbon Lovers, weโre pouring the Old Forester Statesman โ an elegant-looking bottle with a Hollywood backstory, but does the juice inside live up to the label?
We discuss:
๐ Tasting notes ranging from banana lollies to wooden cheeseboards
๐ชต Why the nose smells like fruit, cheese, and timber prep
๐งโโ๏ธ A quick history of Dr. Forrester and the missing โRโ
๐ Why this might be Daveโs least favourite Old Forester expression
Come for the flavour, stay for the platter metaphors.
