Old Forester Straight Rye Whiskey is a notable entry in the rye whiskey category, known for its rich flavor and smooth finish. Crafted using a unique mash bill of 65% rye, 20% malted barley, and 15% corn, this whiskey offers a spicy yet sweet profile that’s distinctly different from many other ryes which typically use a higher percentage of rye in their recipes. It’s bottled at 100 proof, which gives it a robust body and enhances its spicy, floral notes. On the palate, Old Forester Straight Rye features flavors of apple, pear, and a hint of orange zest, complemented by undertones of oak and warm baking spices.
