Old Overholt 114 Proof Aged 4 Years Review
2020 saw Old Overholt — one of America’s oldest whiskey brands — add a few extra proof points to its core expression. Simultaneously, it launched this heavy-hitter, clocking in at 114 proof. This rye may be made in the “Kentucky style,” which employs a slightly lower percentage of rye grain, but this expression still delivers dazzling spice on the finish, all the while anchored by its high ABV.
