Old Forester 117 Series: Warehouse H | 375ML Tasting Notes
Nose: On the nose, this is quite inviting, sweet and fruity in nature. Big caramel and heavy sweetness are lightened somewhat by bright citrus, but given depth with notes of gingerbread and whipped maple butter.
Palate: cherry juice, orange and slightly tart cranberry, which gives it a distinctly festive feeling.
Finish: Finish is very smooth and long.
