Michter’s Us*1 Unblended American Whiskey
Michter’s US*1 Unblended American Whiskey is a small-batch Kentucky American whiskey bottled at 41.7% ABV. Unlike bourbon or rye, it is matured in whiskey-soaked American white oak barrels rather than new oak, and its unblended designation reflects that it contains no grain-neutral spirits.
Produced in Kentucky in small batches, this American whiskey is matured in whiskey-soaked American white oak barrels. This differs from bourbon and rye, which must be aged in new oak barrels by definition. Michter’s states that the whiskey contains no grain-neutral spirits, which is the basis for the US*1 expression’s unblended designation.
The whiskey shows a bright amber colour. Its aroma is sweet and rounded, with stone fruit, barrel char, creamy butter, sweet spice and orange-citrus nuances. The taste balances butterscotch and caramel sweetness with soft fruit, oak, tobacco and leather-like spice. The finish is medium in length, with spice lingering after the fruit and sweetness recede.
A composed choice for sipping neat when you want to explore its sweet oak, fruit and spice character. Add a small splash of water if preferred, or serve over a large ice cube for a slower, more diluted pour.
