After that period of time, it’s generally been assumed that the source of the bourbon inside of Michter’s 10 Year transitioned to Brown-Forman. Michter’s didn’t have Brown-Forman begin producing bourbon for them until 2004. That means the earliest that M10 could have contained Brown-Forman produced bourbon was 2014. Technically, it was probably 2016 seeing as how Joe Magliocco has went on the record to state that no Michter’s 10 Year Bourbon has even been bottled younger than 11.5 years old. Pay attention to that last fact, it’s going to come up again. The creaminess of the rye whiskey becomes an explosion of spiced creamed puddings and cakes, and its finish is a harmonious encore. It’s definitely in our top 20 best bourbons of all time. 8. Single Barrel Straight Rye Whiskey 10 Years Old For such a large brand, Michter’s definition of small batch is just that: small. At a maximum, each batch is limited to just 20 barrels. What to Know: I got an immediate and unexpected blast of Granny Smith Apples and cinnamon with some vanilla mixed in. It’s a light and dry nose.

Another rare expression from Michter’s is the 10-Year Single Barrel Rye. Actually, this is a phenomenal rye, which is perfect for Manhattans. a b c Ralph J. Christian (March 1978).

If you’re looking for these bottles, unfortunately, it takes time and effort before you can find any of these expressions nowadays. The whiskey enters the barrel at 103 proof (industry standard is 125 proof). It’s then aged in toasted and charred barrels and bottled at 91.4 proof. What Our Experts Think It Tastes Like: Yes, Michter’s 10-year releases can be challenging to find because collectors and whiskey enthusiasts highly seek these expressions. All Things Considered This much-loved spirit has a distinct flavor profile and a history to match. The time, care, dedication, and craftsmanship that goes into Bourbon make it quite unlike anything else you’ll spot in the liquor cupboard. In 1964, Congress even declared Bourbon “America’s Native Spirit.” This whiskey is a clear testament to how slow and patient aging reflects the very essence of what makes this spirit exceptional. 7. Single Barrel Rye Whiskey 25 Years Old

But Michter’s relentless pursuit of quality has resulted in every batch of whiskey, rye or bourbon being meticulously controlled from start to finish. I’ve heard on podcasts that the typical batch size is 8 to 10 barrels. So a ranking of all the bottles of Michter’s whiskey is relevant to more than just the true aficionados. It’s for the people! And let’s not forget the oak casks: the oak used is first stripped and left to weather for six months. This process removes the bitter tannins, allowing for a smoother flavor once the mixture has been added.If you’re looking for the Michter’s Legacy Series, the 10-, 20- and 25-Year releases, and the Barrel Finish variations, it’ll be really challenging for you to find a bottle from any of these expressions. But while this small-batch Bourbon has changed a few things over time, it’s kept its ‘super premium’ holding and taste. Blanton’s claims that it’s “the original single barrel Bourbon whiskey” and is known for its unique bottle shape. Maker’s Mark isn’t as spicy as rye-influenced whiskeys, making it a great Bourbon for a pairing. And don’t be put off by the ‘whisky’ spelling: it uses a process similar to that of Scotch, but that’s where the similarities end. Why We Like It: This rye is a gem in the world of spirits, where finding a barrel aged for over 20 years is a true rarity. Why We Like It: This small-batch bottled spirit holds a special place in the world of American whiskey, having been named “Whiskey of the Year” by The Whiskey Exchange in the U.K. in 2019.

But Michter’s 10? None of those changes have occurred. So what is going on here? The Tale of Michter’s 10 Year Single Barrel Bourbon Nose: Orchard fruits, butterscotch candies, and vanilla cake greet you on the nose with a hint of wooden spice. Over the course of the Pennsylvania distillery’s existence, it was called many things — Bomberger’s, mostly, and later Pennco — and finally, Michter’s for a very sentimental but also very savvy marketing reason.https://www.nationalgeographic.com/culture/article/whiskey-distilling-production-entrepreneurs-market-science However, to be called a Bourbon, it must also be produced in the United States and be made from 51 percent corn. The liquid needs to be distilled to no more than 160 proof and entered into the barrel at 125 proof. It must not contain any added flavoring, coloring, or other additives and must be aged in new, oak-charred barrels. Michter’s Small Batch Bourbon shares many similarities to its peers in the whiskey market from a mash bill standpoint. Its ingredients by percentage consist of 79% corn, 11% rye, and 10% wheat.
