Michter's US*1 Barrel Strength Rye

This item is archived.

The Barrel Strength, is a limited release Kentucky Straight Rye filled into cask at 103 Proof, much lower strength than the industry norm. The Michter's company believes that this produces a smoother spirit more approachable spirit at bottling, even at its barrel strength. KWM is only receiving 15 bottles! 

The bottling strength of the release KWM has received is 55%.

Producer Tasting Note: Butterscotch and cinnamon with a hint of cherries on the nose; warming, rich, toasty vanilla and caramel up front with a dry oaky spice on the finish

While the Michter’s name has a long and storied history, the Michter’s Distillery of Louisville, KY has only been in operation since 2015. Any whiskey bottled that is older than that was sourced from other distilleries, typically within Kentucky. Luckily, the quality of anything bottled with the Michter’s label on it is typically high, regardless of their original provenance.

Other than their single barrel products, Michter’s typically bottles their whiskey from selected small batches of 20 barrels or less.
