Old Forester 117 Series Bottled in Bond Rye

Tasting Notes

The Old Forester 117 Series Bottled-in-Bond Rye is a fascinating study in contrasts. Bottled at 100 proof and boasting a mashbill of 65% rye, it offers a gentle spice and herbal profile that sets it apart from the sweeter Old Forester bourbon. You'll find expected notes of caramel and white chocolate, but they're balanced with a refreshing mint, eucalyptus, and a touch of white pepper. The finish is clean and crisp, leaving a pleasant tannic dryness and whispers of flamed orange peel and campfire for those who linger. It's a rye that embraces simplicity, letting the quality of the spirit shine through.
