117 Series: Scotch Cask Finish
The 117 series is a limited expression lineup that debuted in Spring 2021. George Garvin Brown was proud of his Scottish heritage. To celebrate these Gaelic roots this small batch has been uniquely finished in Scotch Whisky casks at 93 proof. These Speyside sourced sherry and wine maturation and finishing casks highlight Old Forester’s natural fruit character that is a result of fermentation with the oldest yeast strain in the industry.
