A fan favorite returns: Old Forester 1910 Extra Extra Old

LOUISVILLE, KY – July 16, 2025 – Today, Old Forester announces the annual release of a fan favorite: 1910 Extra Extra Old, part of 117 Series.

The double-barreled bourbon is aged for an extra 24-months in a heavily charred secondary oak barrel.


1910 Extra Extra Old debuted in Spring 2021 as a result of an experiment of aging 1910 Old Fine Whisky for an extended finishing period which impacted the expression’s tasting profile.

“This bourbon exemplifies our innovative spirit at Old Forester by taking something great and making it even better. The additional maturation leveraged to produce this release unlocks incredibly robust and distinctive flavor,” Assistant Master Distiller Caleb Trigo said.

Old Forester 1910 commemorates the October 22, 1910 distillery fire at 117 Main Street. A batch of mature whisky, ready to be bottled, was then re-barreled in new barrels so it could be removed due to the fire damage. For Extra Extra Old, the extra time in its secondary barrel extracts a more heavily charred influence. 

Old Forester Extra Extra Old, $64.99, is bottled at 93 proof and will be available in limited quantities at the Old Forester Distillery starting July 16 at as well as select Kentucky retailers. It is also available in the online store at shop.oldforester.com for shipping to states where it is legal (D.C., KY, NE, NH, ND only).
