Michter's Sour Mash Whiskey
$84.99
Bottled at 43% the Sour Mash is produced in small batches of less than 20 casks, it is part of the distillery's core range.
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.
From the Distillery: "During the 1970s and 1980s, Michter’s Original Sour Mash Whiskey was the distillery’s single most popular product. While the “Sour Mash” moniker originated from the whiskey production process of the same name – whereby some previously fermented mash is used as the starter for the new mash to be fermented, much like making sourdough bread – Michter’s Original Sour Mash earned distinction for its unique taste. With its unique grain selection, it cannot be categorized as a rye or a bourbon. After disappearing from the market in 1989, Michter’s Original Sour Mash Whiskey made a triumphant return in 2012 with its introduction into the US*1 line. Staying true to the profile and palette of its predecessor, Michter’s US*1 Sour Mash has quickly become a favorite of whiskey enthusiasts.
High West Bourbon
$53.99
The American Prairie Bourbon takes its name from the American Prairie Reserve, which is a group attempting to create the largest wildlife reserve in mainland USA. This Straight Bourbon itself is composed of whisky sourced from multiple distilleries including the 75% Corn, 21% Rye and 4% Malted Barley Mashbill of MGP Distillery of Indiana, and a few other undisclosed Bourbons from other distilleries. The components between three and thirteen years of age before being blended together and bottled at 46% ABV.
From The Producer
"High West Distillery is passionate about the American West’s natural beauty. That’s why we want to raise awareness of one of the most fantastic projects of our time: the American Prairie Reserve in northeastern Montana. This is an amazing effort to assemble the largest wildlife reserve in the lower 48 states. When stepping onto the plains of American Prairie Reserve, it’s easy to imagine the landscape as Lewis and Clark and Native Americans saw it, with thundering herds of bison, racing bands of pronghorn antelope and prairie dog towns dotting the horizon. When complete, the Reserve will be approximately 5,000 square miles; larger than Yellowstone, Yosemite, and Grand Teton National Parks combined. Go to americanprairie.org to learn how to visit and support this worthy cause."
Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Select 47%
$72.99
This bottle was featured on Day 17 of our 2022 KWM Whisky Calendar
Also available in 50ml / Mini bottles
Jack Daniel’s typical mash bill of 80% Corn, 12% Rye, and 8% Malted Barley. The mash was distilled and then put through the Lincoln County Process before being put into heavily charred virgin oak barrels made at the distillery’s own cooperage. Single barrel releases from Jack Daniel’s are typically 4 to 7 years old. Each bottle of Jack Daniel's Single Barrel is carefully selected before being bottled at 47% ABV.
The JD Single Barrel was introduced to the world in 1997. It is bottled at 94 Proof, or 47% ABV. The barrels are selected from the higher floors of Rickhouses and the aim is for all selected casks to have “subtle notes of caramel and spice with bright fruit notes and sweet aromatics for a Tennessee Whiskey” according to the Jack Daniel’s website. Every single barrel has some differences stylistically, though, so every bottle of it you buy might be very on the nose and palate.
At its base level, the Lincoln County Process used to make Tennessee Whiskey means that the new make spirit or white dog/white lightning is filtered through sugar maple charcoal before being put into barrels to age. Jack Daniel’s has its own version of this, wherein the distillery burns sugar maple boards/ricks to a heavy char and then sprays them down with water to prevent complete combustion. After burning the new charcoal is ground into pellets and packed into vats through which the 70% ABV new make spirit filters through. The filtered spirit is cut to 62.5% ABV and put into heavily charred virgin oak barrels to age away.
Basil Hayden 10 Year Bourbon
$94.99
You don't see Bourbons with an age statement at or above 10 years very often, and the price on this one is pretty decent. This is a very spicy high-rye Bourbon, and limited in availability.
Producer Description
"Basil Hayden’s 10 Year Old Bourbon features the same high-rye bourbon recipe that Basil Hayden’s fans know and love, but the whiskey is aged in barrels longer to create another layer of complexity and deeper flavor. The result of the extra aging is a distinct whiskey with big oak aromas along with hints of char and vanilla. Basil Hayden’s trademark spice shines through as the perfect complement to the caramel sweetness and wood flavors, making the whiskey a memorable one for fans and newcomers alike."
