Final Thoughts
Bold and structured, the 100 Proof expression was originally crafted for bartenders and shines in cocktails. The nose is rich with vanilla, brown sugar, dark cherry, and oak spice. On the palate, flavors of caramel, roasted nuts, cinnamon, and dark fruit emerge with robust intensity. Full-bodied and lively, it finishes long with oak, baking spice, and a peppery kick. While excellent neat, its proof and balance make it ideal for cocktails like the Manhattan or Boulevardier. It’s a bartender’s favorite, embodying Old Forester’s legacy of big flavor at great value.
