About this bottle

Old Forester 117 Series Whiskey Row Fire is a american whiskey from United States made by Old Forester. It is bottled at 43% ABV, in a 375 ml bottle. Producer tasting notes — on the nose: notes of leather and furniture polish on the nose, but with a subtle cherry character underneath; on the palate: It’s perfectly approachable on the palate, notes of honey and graham crackers sweetening things moderately while letting notes of dark chocolate and spice do the heavy lifting; finish: Toasty and oaky on the finish.

Serving & pairing

American whiskey styles vary widely; taste neat first, then with ice. Good company for smoked meats, cornbread and roasted nuts.

What is Tennessee whiskey?

A straight whiskey made in Tennessee that meets bourbon’s requirements and is additionally filtered through sugar-maple charcoal before ageing (the “Lincoln County process”), which softens the spirit.

First Scotch

Peat without the leap of faith.

“I wanted Islay without buying a wall of smoke. The tasting notes on Spirit Hives pointed to a gentler malt. It opened a door instead of slamming one.”
Jonah K.Islay single malt
Advent calendar

Advent, then a full-size bottle.

“Twenty-four small pours, each with a card. December at our house became a ritual, and we already know which Spirit Hives bottles we are buying properly in January.”
Oliver B.Whisky advent
Retirement gift

A retirement bottle with a box.

“Twenty-five years deserved a twenty-five-year Scotch. Spirit Hives sent it in the producer's presentation box. The whole office signed the card around it.”
Robert and June25-year-old Scotch
Whisky club

Cask strength, labelled as such.

“ABV and proof on the card, so I knew I was buying 58 percent and could plan the water. Big, oily, brilliant. Exactly what Spirit Hives said it was.”
