Crafted in Kentucky and aged in fire-charred new American white oak barrels, this single-barrel rye delivers exceptional depth and complexity.
After a three-year absence from the market, Michter’s reintroduced this iconic rye in April 2014 under the guidance of then-Master Distiller Willie Pratt. The 2024 release continues to uphold its reputation as a premium expression of craftsmanship and heritage.
