Michter's Toasted Barrel Finish Straight Rye (Limited Release)

Michter's Toasted Barrel Finish Straight Rye (Limited Release)

Michter's US1 Toasted Barrel Finish Straight Rye is a limited-release whiskey that exemplifies the distillery's innovative approach to traditional rye. This expression begins with fully matured Michter's US1 Kentucky Straight Rye, which is then finished in a second custom-made barrel. This secondary barrel is constructed from 24-month air-dried wood and undergoes a specific toasting process, enhancing the whiskey's complexity and depth.

Whiskey Profile

  • Type: Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey
  • Proof: Varies by release; the September 2023 release averages 108.9 proof
  • Production: Limited release

Tasting Notes

  • Nose: A rich bouquet featuring toffee, honey, black walnut, and a subtle hint of campfire smoke.
  • Palate: Decadent flavors of dark chocolate, salted caramel, cherry, and mint, with pronounced spice balanced by rounded oak.
  • Finish: Long and satisfying, leaving a harmonious blend of sweetness and spice.

Production Details

The initial maturation occurs in fire-charred, new American white oak barrels. For the finishing process, the whiskey is transferred to a second barrel made from 24-month air-dried wood, which is toasted to Michter's precise specifications. This meticulous process imparts unique characteristics to the rye, resulting in a whiskey that is both complex and approachable.

Serving Suggestions
