Old Forester The 117 Series: Prohibition Era Still Proof

About this bottle

This 117 Series release from Old Forester honors the brand’s Prohibition-era history, when it was one of the few distilleries legally permitted to produce whiskey for medicinal use. Bottled at 130 proof, the release nods to Old Forester’s historic distillation proof during the 100-day “distiller’s holiday,” a short, licensed window in the 1930s—prior to the repeal of Prohibition—when producers were allowed to replenish stocks. Available beginning December 5, 2025 at the Old Forester Distilling Co. retail shop, in select states via direct-to-consumer sales, and at select Kentucky retailers. Bottled in 375 mL formats.
