MICHTER’S US★1 Barrel Strength Rye

Winning Bid: $157.00

MICHTER’S US1 BARREL STRENGTH RYE

DISTILLED AND BOTTLED IN KENTUCKY

Since the 1990’s, the Michter’s team has been doing pioneering work to re-establish the high quality American Rye whiskey category. The May 2015 inaugural release of Michter’s US1 Barrel Strength Rye marked yet another milestone in that quest. For maturation, the Rye distillate is entered into the barrel at 103 proof, rather than a more industry standard higher proof. Barrel entry at a lower proof of 103 rather than a higher proof costs Michter’s more money in terms of barrels and warehousing, but we believe it yields a richer, smoother, more full-bodied whiskey after proper maturation. A single barrel product, each barrel of Michter’s US1 Barrel Strength Rye is bottled at its particular alcohol level at the time of bottling. The majority of barrels in the releases range from 107 to 112 proof. To savor it is a unique experience for anyone who enjoys rye whiskey.

  •  Single barrel. Limited quantities.
  •  Kentucky
  • 103 Proof
  • As a single barrel product, each barrel is bottled at its particular alcohol level at the time of bottling. The bottling strength for releases of Michter’s US*1 Barrel Strength Rye often ranges from 107 to 115.
  • Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey
  • Fire-charred, new American white oak barrels
  • 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.
