One of a limited production items, Michter's 10 Year Single Barrel Kentucky Straight Rye continues the legacy of America's first whiskey variety (rye) from America's first whiskey company (Michter's, originally known as Shenk's).
After a nearly three year absence from the market, Michter's then Master Distiller Willie Pratt finally gave the green light for the re-release of Michter's 10 Year Straight Rye.
Drawn from Barrel No. 14C16 at a natural strength 46.4% ABV, this limited release rye is increasingly difficult to track down.
The benchmark is set so high that the distillery decided against releasing a 2015 ten year old rye as the Michter's Master Distiller decided it wasn't quite up to their usual high standards.
Presentation: 70cl, 46.4%
