Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is the 2025 edition of Old Forester's annual Birthday Bourbon, a Kentucky straight bourbon released each year to honor founder George Garvin Brown. Every edition is built from a unique batch of barrels selected for their character and maturity, so each year's bottle is its own snapshot rather than a repeat of the last. The 2025 release opens with rich caramel, baked apple, toasted oak and warm vanilla spice. It then layers brown sugar, dark cherry, cinnamon and buttery toffee on the palate before a long finish of sweet oak, cocoa and gentle pepper. It is made in limited quantities, which makes it a natural fit for collectors tracking the series year to year, but it rewards the drinker just as much. Pour it neat, add a few drops of water, and watch the fruit and spice deepen. We carry it because it pairs real heritage with a profile worth opening: a bottle that marks a milestone and still earns its place in the glass.
Pairs well with
- Pecan pie — The bourbon's brown sugar and buttery toffee notes echo the pie's caramelized filling and toasted nuts.
- Dark chocolate desserts — The cocoa and sweet oak on the finish line up naturally with rich, bittersweet chocolate.
- Milestone birthday celebration — A release created to honor a founder's birthday, with deep caramel and dark cherry layers, feels right for marking a big occasion.
