LOUISVILLE, Ky., Nov. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Old Forester®, the first bottled bourbon, and King Ranch, the birthplace of American Ranching, are releasing a limited-edition whisky that pays homage to the hard work, ingenuity and lasting legacy of two iconic brands – Old Forester King Ranch Edition.
Available only in Texas starting November 1, 2022, this marks the first iteration of the limited-edition expression that celebrates the rich history of the Brown family of Brown-Forman and descendants of King Ranch founder Richard King.
The Brown family has seven generations of whisky-making credentials, and the King Ranch family celebrates eight generations of ranching. Combined, they have 300 years of uniquely American history. In addition, the two brands are connected via the Kentucky Derby. Old Forester Bourbon is the key ingredient in every Mint Julep sold at Churchill Downs; King Ranch owned three Derby winners, including 1946 Triple Crown winner Assault.
