2023 Michter's US-1 Limited Release Toasted Barrel Finish Rye Whiskey 750ml
The 2023 Michter's US-1 Limited Release Toasted Barrel Finish Rye Whiskey is a true gem for rye enthusiasts, blending tradition with innovation. This limited-edition expression showcases the meticulous craftsmanship Michter’s is known for, offering a complex, nuanced profile. It begins with their classic US-1 Rye, aged to perfection in charred new American oak barrels. The spirit is then transferred into specially toasted barrels, a process that imparts layers of rich flavor without the heavy smoke typical of re-charring. Each barrel is carefully toasted to achieve a delicate caramelization, enhancing the natural rye spice with a subtle warmth.
On the nose, this whiskey offers inviting notes of baked cinnamon, sweet toffee, and dark fruit. The first sip unfolds with flavors of butterscotch, toasted vanilla, and a hint of orange zest, balanced by a peppery spice. The toasted barrel finish delivers a smooth, lingering warmth with soft oak undertones, making it a delightful experience from start to finish. With an exceptional mouthfeel, every sip reflects Michter’s dedication to producing high-quality, well-balanced spirits.
This release is available only in limited quantities, making it a coveted bottle for collectors and aficionados alike. Whether you’re enjoying it neat or in a classic rye-based cocktail, the 2023 Michter's Toasted Barrel Finish Rye offers a refined, yet approachable drinking experience.
