“By finishing our signature bourbon for approximately six months in these rum barrels, we have complimented and accentuated the sweet aromatics of Old Forester with hints of brown sugar and molasses, emboldening its rich character. Rum Finish provides a sweet addition to the series that whiskey aficionados – and rum drinkers – will love.” 

"Whisky is liquid sunshine."
