Whiskey lovers know Old Forester all too well. Now, fans can get America’s first bottled Bourbon in their cocktails in an all-new way.
Old Forester and Bourbon Barrel Foods recently launched Cocktail Provisions, a collection of bitters, syrups and tincture. Created by their Louisville-based Master Taster and Bourbon Specialist Jackie Zykan, the line is inspired by the iconic flavor profiles of Old Forester.
“We want people to enjoy our Bourbon the way they like it – whether it’s neat, on the rocks or in a hand-crafted cocktail,” said Zykan. “Cocktail Provisions is there to help you find your inner bartender and discover new, unique ways to experience Old Forester.”
Old Forester Cocktail Provisions line includes Bohemian Bitters (cherry tobacco), Smoked Cinnamon Bitters (baking spice & smoke), Hummingbird Bitters (citrus & floral), Perfect Old Fashioned Syrup (rich demerara syrup with a proprietary blend of three Old Forester bitters), Oleo-Saccharum Syrup (a rustic cocktail ingredient created using a cold process to extract oil from citrus peels by immersing them in sugar; adds a bright citrus flavor profile) and Salt and Pepper Tincture (Bourbon Barrel Foods Bourbon Smoked Sea Salt and Bourbon Smoked Pepper; adds slight spice and dimension and tames bitter notes without the texture of salt and pepper).
Cocktail Provisions and recipes will be available at store.oldforester.com and bourbonbarrelfoods.com as well as Bourbon Barrel Foods stores.
