Old Forester recently debuted its latest expression in the 117 Series: Bottled-in-Bond Rye – This release marks the first Bottled in Bond Rye Whisky handcrafted by Old Forester. 

QUICK FACTS

  • AGE: 10 Year (Spring 2015)
  • PROOF: 100
  • PRICE: $65 (375ml)

The 1897 Bottled in Bond Act required that each bottling be composed of barrels filled during a single distillation season. This small batch of Rye Whisky reflects the unique flavor of the unusually cool and wet Spring of 2015. 

117 Series Bottled in Bond Rye is bottled at 100-proof in a 375 mL bottle.   

“This 117 Series release is unique because it holds a tie to our 1897 Bottled in Bond, our tribute to the Bottled in Bond Act,” said Old Forester Assistant Master Distiller Caleb Trigo. “This release is a first for Old Forester, and stays true to our historical promise of quality, consistency and balance.”
