I picked up Old Forester's High Angels' Share Rye (Batch 001) from the 117 Series at the distillery on Whiskey Row in Louisville, and today I'm putting it to the test. We'll talk about what makes this limited-edition, 110-proof rye unique, how those high angel's share barrels create a more concentrated whiskey, and I'll break down the nose, palate, finish, and whether it's worth the $65 price tag. Most importantly, does it earn a Keep It, Collect It, or Cull It? Let's find out.
