Old Forester Single Barrel Rye is a Kentucky straight rye whiskey from Louisville, drawn from individual barrels and bottled unfiltered at barrel strength in a 750ml bottle. The strength runs from about 64 to 65.5% ABV, depending on the barrel. It is the first barrel-proof rye in Old Forester's history. The mashbill is 65% rye, 20% malted barley and 15% corn. The nose offers brown sugar, magnolia blossom, sassafras and candied lemon, with caramel and hazelnut emerging later. On the palate, black pepper and cinnamon give way to vanilla, lemon custard and baked apple. The finish is long and dry, with allspice, pine, anise and lemon zest.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
