Old Forester Statesman Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whisky is a premium 95-proof (47.5% ABV) bourbon produced by the Brown-Forman Corporation in Louisville, Kentucky. Originally launched in 2017 as a marketing tie-in for the action movie Kingsman: The Golden Circle—where the American spy organization "Statesman" operates a whiskey distillery as a front—it has since become a permanent fixture in the Old Forester lineup.
Production and Distillation
- Warehouse Sourcing: Blended from hand-selected casks aged on the warmest, top floors of the warehouse.
- Heat Expansion: Intense structural heat forces the liquid deep into the charred American oak barrels, accelerating wood interaction.
- Standard Mash Bill: Uses Old Forester’s signature recipe of 72% corn, 18% rye, and 10% malted barley.
- Age Profile: Carries no official age statement (NAS), but consists of a mingling of barrels aged between 4 to 6 years.
Flavor Profile and Tasting Notes
Reviewers from platforms like Breaking Bourbon and the Bourbon Gents highlight its heavily balanced landscape of heat and deep spice.
- Nose: Strong aromas of devil's food cake, clove, and oak spice undercut by raw vanilla, dark cherry, and the brand's signature hint of banana.
- Palate: A bold flash of pepper, cinnamon bark, and sharp citrus dominates a buttery leather and sweet caramel base.
- Finish: Medium to long, featuring sharp barrel spice and eucalyptus fading into orange cream, caramel, and faint brown sugar
