Michter's US*1 Straight Rye

Michter’s US-1 Single Barrel Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey (42.4%) is the product of one barrel of exceptionally produced rye whiskey that utilises only the finest ingredients and traditional techniques. Each barrel of rye is selected by Michter’s Master of Maturation when it reaches maturity, usually between five and eight years. This rye whiskey is an old “Kentucky style” of rye that utilises a higher percentage of corn in the mash bill. This gives the whiskey citrus notes and a buttery texture and helps to balance the more spicy and peppery flavours that rye is known for. This rye has notes of black pepper, mint and eucalyptus and is rounded off with fresh orange peel, butterscotch and sweet toffee.
