Tasting Notes

The Old Forester 117 Series Rum Cask Finish is a limited release bourbon that takes a detour to the Caribbean. After its initial aging, this spirit gets a finishing touch in rum barrels, resulting in a light, fruity profile. Expect hints of banana, pineapple, and maybe even a touch of mango mingling with the classic bourbon notes. It's not always a boozy rum punch; some find the rum influence subtle, a whisper of the tropics. The finish tends to be on the drier side, leaving a lingering oakiness that balances the sweetness. Bottled at 95 proof, it’s an intriguing experiment for those seeking a twist on traditional bourbon.
