One of Michter’s most limited production items, Michter’s 10 Year Single Barrel Kentucky Straight Rye is made from the highest quality American Rye and then aged for 10 years in fire-charred new American white oak barrels.
This 2017 Michter’s 10-year-old rye is of particular importance and pedigree as it marks the first special release from their new Master Distiller, Pamela Heilmann who took over from the now retired MD Willie Pratt. She comes to the job with first-class credentials having run the Booker Noe Distillery for 7 years as well as serving on many industry boards and has well and truly broken the glass ceiling in a male dominated industry.
From all the early reviews, the bottling is pure Michter’s, perfection in a bottle and even Pamela Heilmann herself calls it “absolutely outstanding”. So add one to your bar or drinking stock today.
