New Old Forester Distillery Installs Column Still
Produced by Vendome Copper and Brass Works, the Old Forester still is 24 inches wide and 44 feet tall, weighing in at 4700 lbs. The column still's key role in bourbon making is the separation of the fermented mash (corn, rye, malt and barley) to create 'new spirit,' essentially serving as the heart of the distillery.
