While their Michter's team distills according to tried and true Kentucky practices, it continually experiments as it pursues Michter's goal of making the most excellent American whiskeys. Following years of research on different barrel finishes for Rye whiskey, they are proud to offer this release of Michter's US 1 Toasted Barrel Finish Rye Whiskey.
To make Michter's US 1 Toasted Barrel Finish Rye, they take their US1 Kentucky Straight Rye at barrel strength and then age it for an additional period in a second custom barrel.
