Old Forester Single Barrel Rye, introduced in 2021, is the brand’s first barrel-strength rye whiskey, available unfiltered from individual barrels. The mashbill is 65% rye, 20% malted barley and 15% corn.
Ultimately, I’m not sure this adds much over the already outstanding Old Forester Rye — as expected, aside from the proof the two whiskeys have an awful lot in common — but it’s certainly a well-crafted whiskey that should feel at home in any upscale bar, home or otherwise.
