Final Thoughts
Part of the Whiskey Row Series, 1920 pays tribute to Prohibition-era Old Forester bottled at 115 proof. The nose is powerful, offering cocoa, espresso, dried cherries, and charred oak. The palate is intense and layered with dark chocolate, caramelized sugar, cinnamon, and roasted pecans, carried by a bold, full-bodied texture. The finish is long and warming, with lingering cocoa, oak, and spice. Best enjoyed neat, though a drop of water reveals hidden fruit notes. It’s a favorite among enthusiasts, delivering intensity and richness that rival much more expensive bourbons.
