Old Forester 117 Series High Angels Share Barrels 001 Straight Bourbon Whiskey 375ml
Old Forester 117 Series High Angels’ Share Barrels #001 — the first in the 117 Series program, presenting barrels that experienced extraordinary evaporation (the ‘angels’ share’) during aging, producing a highly concentrated spirit bottled at 110 proof in 375ml format.
The 117 Series draws its name from Old Forester’s street address at 117 W. Main Street in Louisville’s Whiskey Row. The High Angels’ Share designation indicates barrels that lost an unusually high percentage of volume to evaporation during aging — a condition that concentrates the remaining spirit’s flavor and proof. #001 is the inaugural expression in the series.
