Description

A bottle of Old Forester Kentucky Straight Bourbon whiskey. This was distilled and bottled in bond by Brown-Forman Distillers Corporation. We estimate this was bottled in the 1970s.

The label is stamped with the number FG 770937.

This bottle comes from the collection of Richard Crobar, owner of The Crobar in London’s Soho for 20 years until its closure during Covid. In storage since then, Richard has decided it's time to put the collection up for sale. He says: ‘If you end up owning one or more of them, I hope they give you as much pleasure as they have given me over the years.’

This Old Forester sold at our online auction for £220
