Old Forester 117 Series Prohibition Era Still Proof Batch 001 130 Proof Bourbon

Old Forester 117 Series Prohibition Era Still Proof Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey 375ml 130 Proof
A seriously collectible modern Old Forester 117 Series release paying tribute to one of the most fascinating periods in American whiskey history.
The Prohibition Era Still Proof bottling recreates the historic strength Old Forester was reportedly distilling at during the medicinal whiskey era, when only a handful of Kentucky distillers were legally permitted to bottle whiskey for medicinal purposes.
According to the official release concept:
In 1930, Old Forester distilled at 130 proof — this bottling honours that historic production strength.
This is Batch 001, making it the inaugural release batch of this specific expression — always a major collector signal.
Bottled at a ferocious 130 Proof (65% ABV) in the enthusiast-focused 117 Series, this is not standard shelf bourbon.
The compact 375ml format adds further scarcity appeal, as these smaller-format special releases are often snapped up quickly by serious Old Forester followers.
