- In stock, ready to ship
- Backordered, shipping soon
This American whiskey from Michter's Distiller in Louisville, Kentucky, is matured in barrels which had previously held bourbon. As such, this expression cannot be called bourbon, as bourbon needs to be matured in new American oak barrels - hence why it's called whiskey instead. Slightly confusing legal nomenclature aside, it's bloomin' marvelous!
Unlike Bourbon or Rye, this whiskey is aged in a way that utilizes whiskey-soaked barrels to achieve a rich and unique flavor profile. This allows mellow flavor with less intense smoky, charred influence found in bourbons. Instead, it has a sweetness, oak, mint & spice flavor.
ABV: 41.7%
Nose: Polished oak, buttery corn and a kick of caraway spiciness.
Palate: Wonderfully creamy on the palate, boasting notes of butterscotch, golden syrup and sultanas.
