While Old Forester Single Barrels originally came bottled at a sippable 90 proof, trends for bourbon lovers as of late have looked to higher proof expressions. The distillery will now be offering a choice between 100 proof and barrel strength, unfiltered bourbon, while the 90 proof option will be eliminated.

“Since our founding 150 years ago, we’ve always listened to our customers and looked for ways to innovate to meet their tastes,” said Jackie Zykan, Old Forester master taster in a press release this morning. “Proof and filtration are both really important factors in the final flavor and complexity of a whisky, and we wanted to be able to share how special some of these barrels are when the product inside is tasted in raw form.”
