Sensory Tasting Notes
The Nose
Dark caramel and clove up front, with a firm rye spice note and light toasted oak underneath.
The Palate
Full-bodied for its price point, carrying brown sugar, black pepper, and dried dark fruit over a solid oak backbone; the extra proof compared to the 86-proof classic gives noticeably more weight and spice intensity.
The Finish
Medium-to-long, closing on baking spice and charred oak with a warming finish that outlasts the standard classic bottling.
The Heritage
Old Forester built its reputation on transparency and consistency dating to 1870, and Signature 100 Proof exists as the modern expression of that same high-rye recipe at a strength closer to how the brand’s whiskey would have been proofed historically, before extensive dilution became standard industry practice. It’s become a favorite among bartenders specifically because it holds up in stirred cocktails better than lower-proof bourbons, while remaining priced for regular restocking rather than occasional splurging.
