To be labeled Bottled-in-Bond, whisky must be from one distillation season, in the same year and aged in a federally bonded warehouse. Old Forester 1897 Bottled-in-Bond, presented at 100 Proof, follows these same regulations with utilizing a small batch of barrels aged for a minimum of four years resulting in a dark and spicy Bourbon.
