Is This REALLY The Best Old Forester Bourbon?!

[@francisrizzo1529]

That head shake and Kurt saying "Bro, you need to sit down" was awesome!

[@bradleyhoey5684]

Happy Birthday, Kurt! Welcome to 60! OF family are among my favs. Love this channel!

[@shaneelliott1263]

You guys are becoming my go to for bourbon. Trenton is pretty good at this blind thing. Definitely entertaining between the two of you! Keep em coming!

[@dansmallwood2409]

Happy Birthday Kurt! I love 1910 also! No shame there, it's an outstanding bottle!

[@thebrianfoster]

I cannot tell you how much I love this channel! You guys have amazing chemistry on camera. I learn so much and enjoy every video.

[@shmuckling]

Trent picking the 1910 last had me gasping for air. I know it's one of his favorites, and it's on many people's favorites lists, and mine too. It's ok, some days some stuff just tastes way different than usual.

[@charlesbowdoin1780]

I think Trenton drank a glass of vinegar before the video. They’ve blinded these bottles several times and everything he said today was opposite of what he’s said in the past😂

[@toddwoodall5989]

I think Trenton just had voluptuous melons on his mind.

[@charliefrago1380]

1910 one of my favorites

[@camdenhochgesang6554]

1910 is absolutely delicious. So good I don’t mind the lower proof. Also love coopers craft. Drinks like a double oaked product. Early Times isn’t my thing.

[@hollyjhj3732]

Verrrry interesting! I'm definitely excited to try the 1924. And I very much appreciate Trenton's level of biblical knowledge. 😃

[@lnomolas3427]

Don't sweat it, I have a few years on you. Just stay active, keep doing what you like and don't give in or give up.

[@Abby_Normal_1969]

How fun. Haven't seen the 1924 yet. Love 1910. In fact, I am a big fan of the Early Times and the Coopers 100. Early happy birthday Kurt.

[@berkaberk]

Surprised 1920 didn't make an appearance here.

[@tombryan1]

Proof didn't lineup with the rest

[@FliesGoodbyes]

​@@tombryan1its 115. Close enough imo. To be completely honest though, I was looking for 1924 vs 1920. 😂

[@jasonburrows5840]

1910 is an amazing bottle and this shows how good old forrester products are!

[@RJR2222]

I truly believe that when you blind similar whiskey the outcome will/can change. I blinded all my 100 proofers twice now and the winner of the first time didn’t make final four the last time I did it. I think it’s a good exercise to see how my palate has changed

[@Ky_Tom_1056]

So glad your wife had you correct the bottle line up. That was driving me nuts. 1910 to me is a touch more interesting than my favorite pour, which is the WR double oaked. Great blind guys, thanks for doing it.

[@b.knight96]

seriously nuts ... thank you for the fix

[@waynekelly1419]

HBD Kurt 🎉🎂!!! The videos are always awesome!

[@davetbrunner]

Let's just all have a toast to a happy birthday and to Old Forester always putting out good whiskey 😎

[@hockeyhalod]

1897 is such a good daily pour for me. Glad it held up pretty well.

[@hockeyhalod]

I will say, when I have a pour while hungry, everything changes.

[@miraclemartinez6782]

Happy Birthday Kurt 🎂 🥳

[@matthewhenry6276]

I have started to do the same thing Trenton said about picking up notes on the nose. I smell all sorts of stuff differently and more intentionally now than before I started my bourbon journey. It may bring some whack nose notes sometimes but it has helped me a lot trying new stuff picking up notes.

[@connorroman5899]

Happy Birthday, Kurt! Today is also my birthday! Hope you have a fantastic day/night with your friends and family!

[@rolyat]

7:45 absolutely killed me. Great video

[@Mhum93]

Agreed! It goes to show how your palate changes from day to day. All great bottles! Not always a definitive placement of what’s “better” than the other.

[@TBrizzle]

Kurt, welcome to the 60 club! Happy Birthday 🎉🥃

[@thomasmx1]

Not surprised 1910 might be my favorite from old forester

[@_riverlyfe_177]

Thank yall for always being honest. Not following the hype, and sticking with what actually tastes best to yall. 👏 👏 👏

[@tobyhayes611]

For the money, I'm all about Old Forester 1897 Bottled in Bond, Early Times BIB and Coopers Craft 100. Nice review and Happy Birthday Kurt!

[@mikepetrella4009]

Awesome video boys! Kurt was clearly the sane one here today….1910 is just an amazing bottle of whiskey! I would love to see a NEW bottle of 1920 in a future blind since that old one of yours has been getting smoked recently. See you guys tonight for the livestream! Cheers!

[@willwood7656]

Let’s go!!!! Ready for the new 1920 bottle to pull thru! I know it was always a good one but I know yalls last bottle has been struggling!

[@Miller_man]

I’m a little upset! Haha I figured coopers craft 100 would be the sleeper to be in the running. I love that bottle and it beats a lot of more expensive bottles for me! Great video

[@williamcornelison4721]

Happy Birthday Kurt. Sooooo looking forward to tonight.

[@brianamiot8476]

Fun! My dad turns 70 on 1/1/25... so, soon. I've been trying to get a cool bottle for him. I KNOW a store has an old rip vw just sitting in their back room. They have "plans" to out it out, then it's in a "raffle" then they cancel that, then I go in and they sold it one guy told me, then the next week another guy said they are holding it til Christmas. I'm trying not to annoy them.. I only inquire once a week about it but the story changes every time! It's so maddening trying to buy a reasonable priced gift for my dad (who is my hero, and also a Curt (with a C)). Anyways, cheers- maybe I'll just look for another gift for him this year...but its 70!! Soooo I'm compelled to keep trying.

[@ericknight9502]

Mellon's on the mind...me too, Trenton, me too.

[@njones427]

Yep....

[@genov9374]

I agree with you that OF1910 is a little too drying on the aftertaste, but it's nose is so NICE!. That's why I normally mix in some OF 1920 to brighten it. It might now have been so drying had it been first instead of last. Nice review. I was wondering about Coopers, but now I don't have to purchase one.

[@aarontagerson8598]

Happy Birthday Kurt,,, and we now know who slept in on Sunday Morning!!😂😂🥃🥃

[@kngbllr805]

Happy Birthday Kurt!

"Cantaloupe always smell like they're going to go rotten, it reminds me of that profile, i do like it." lol

[@JackRyan-dj9nm]

Really enjoyed the video. New Bourbon drinker love the education I get from you guys. I most enjoy my Bourbon on ice with a little simple syrup. I always try it neat first but rarely one up with the flavors you guys do. I will keep trying.

[@jckelley10]

You guys are very entertaining!

[@tom35m59]

Happy birthday Kurt

[@davidatac9738]

I have to choose from : weller FP, Jack 12 or 1924 today. What are you grabbing?

[@jordan4328]

Jd12 all day

[@rustbucket9318]

Makes me want a 1924 even more now. Like hen's teeth here in central Texas right now though.

[@LP23D6]

I wouldn't mind a few more OF's in my collection . I have the shelf 100, a 1920, and 3 barrel picks. I like the picks the best and all 3 are different with the 1920 following a close second to those 3. Great blind guys.

[@charlesbowdoin1780]

Happy Birthday Kurt! Sometimes just shut it down before running into the ditch Trenton!

[@earnhardtjd]

You guys got me hooked on finding early times bib finally I pulled the trigger and bought one online it's not here yet but am excited to try it

[@jondilly1974]

HBD Kurt!🎉

[@Frank-uf2vn]

Happy Birthday Kurt 🎂 I would have rather seen the Old Forester 100 proof signature series rather than the Early times going head-to-head with the 1897 because of the unbelievable difference in price and both @ 100 proof. all my local liquor stores are out of the 1924 but also at 100 proof and upwards of $115 (much higher online) a bottle I would go with the Old Forester Redstone Barrel Proof Single Barrel @ 130-135 proof at $84 all day every day. Great review as usual guys and Cheers! 🥃

[@Orpheus159]

Really love a side by side comparison with 1920.

[@Chalky52]

Good morning 🙏 🌄 ☺️

[@dans9228]

Another great educational video - thanks.

[@DemonbreedGaming]

im not surprised 1910 came in first for kurt. its an amazing bottle.

[@vrudy6]

I just love your blinds. Keep’em coming!

[@frankscalise1297]

I really think the WR Double Oaked beats the 1910. Would love to see those go head to head.

[@tylerschritz1843]

Pretty sure they did this exact video (with a couple others), and the WR did win.

[@touring3d]

Old Forester is very underrated

[@rustyharvey4557]

🤣🤣🤣 Yall are too much!!! 1st and 2nd reactions were awesome!

[@thedukeofrawsome7283]

Haven't seen it yet here in San Antonio, but will be looking for it tomorrow! See see ya'll on the Live!

[@robertd2883]

1924 is delicious. One of my favorites out there. Wish I could get more so I dont have to baby it.

[@montysouthern4507]

You guys have done knob creek blind before. Would love to see a “re-blind”. Also the Russell’s lineup with rare breed mixed in. I’ve had all but the 13 and single Rick house and enjoy them all. Keep up the great work!

[@spencerjcolling]

I already have OF 1910 on my list to buy for February! Cool!

[@djd2819]

Was Moses on the Ark? Love it.

[@kevinfoster2246]

Happy Birthday!! where is the new bottle of 1920?

[@TheMarcopix]

I was in Gardiner Mt years ago for an extended period and had access to hard-to-find bottles at the state run store. I made a booze trip and had been drinking Cooper's Craft and had access to ECBP, Eagle Rare, JD barrel proof...lots of stuff that was hard to find elsewhere...and I ended up just rebuying the Cooper's Craft. It was around $27-ish and was so enjoyable, to me, as a sipper it just didn't make sense to buy anything else. They also had an Old Rip 10 for about $200 which I passed on too. Not a fan of ET but everything else is solid for me

[@Bushy556]

Just had Rip 10 last night for the first time. Pretty disappointed. I had Weller 12 with it and preferred that.

[@curanderoverde]

I think Old Forester 100 is absolutely crushable and not expensive

[@Aj9Livess]

some real SLB classics with this one LOL

[@spitefulbumm]

I also need some Chicken chili. Thanks for leaving that in.

[@rtrascal3431]

Enjoy the video as always. I wish you would have included the 1920 as it has been winning many of our blind tasting competitions at home. Also Trent it's "voluptuous" not "volumptuous". ;-)

[@dr.y3507]

1910 is my #1...😎

❤should’ve done a birthday bourbon instead of one of the cheaper ones. Would’ve been interesting.

[@garycramer7866]

I’m with you 1910 is my all time favorite then 1920 followed by Wild Turkey Rare Breed

[@ikiruyamamoto1050]

Fun blind per usual. BUT, I'm a little shocked you didn't include the relatively well regarded "1915" blend to throw a curveball in there (like you often do with "Poor Man's Pappy").

[@TLS2005]

coppers craft tastes pretty good ill get it again

[@bumpandrun]

Trenton is literally describing 1910 with what many others have said about 1924. I think the glasses may have been mixed up.

[@johngirlando]

I do like the 1910. I have noticed that as the bottle wears down, the taste gets more oakie and tannic, so I understand Trent’s take.

[@mistermom310]

Very interesting video. I've got Early Times on my to try list and now I'm adding an OF 1910. I have and love Coopers Craft 100. 😋🥃

[@bmc2567]

I was surprised honestly based on the previous review. I’ve yet to cross paths with it here in NC.

[@neilpowell1641]

Blinds will always throw you unless the pours are significantly different in character and flavor. Always happens. 1910 is great, not sure why anyone would feel bad for picking that! I'm curious if knowing the price of the bottles (price considered) would change the overall placement?

[@coreywigal5435]

Best part of this channel is just watching Trent eat crow during blinds. Should have put Rare Breed in here just for fun to watch him pick that too 😂

[@ThulrVOdinsson]

I'm really conflicted about having missed the 1924 at SRP! I can find it for about $250 at best, and I just can't justify it. I would really like to see a blind and/or just a comparison between the Old Forester 1897 and the Old Forester (Signature) 100 Proof, since they're both Old Forester 100 proofs, it would be interesting to hear your take on how they line up with one another.

[@scoobtoober2975]

Thanks you for this. I hate hype when it's confounded with a huge price. But a fair price bring it on. I have an idea what to get next at retail price. Just got some mm regular to start down that brands path tonight. I did not like OF orange label at all. I'll try the 1910 for sure. It's sitting on most if not all shelfs.

[@vervor]

Trenton with the all time thumbnail pic - can we get the outtakes?

[@EdwardErfurt]

It would be fun to see a blind of past winners. Best of the best challenge!

[@DaleKirkland]

Suggestion for Next OF blind: include bday bourbon, single barrel, 1924, 1910 and 1920. I sampled both bday and 1924 side by side and preferred 1924

OF 1897 is my absolute favorite OF and favorite Bourbon, its the epitome of a classic, quality traditional Bourbon thats so satisfying. 1920 is excellent, looking forward to 1924 now. That 1910 is actually my least favorite of any Bourbon, overdone, spoiled taste to me. As always, fun and interesting video.
