This July Michter’s will ship its first and only 2022 bottling of 10 Year Rye. Michter’s Master Distiller Dan McKee commented, “Given that we’re holding back our 10 Year Bourbon until 2023, I’m especially happy to be releasing our 10 Year Rye this summer. It’s one of my very favorite releases.”
When remarking on the 2022 release of the distiller’s 10-Year Rye, Michter’s President Joseph J. Magliocco said, “It may be the only release we do of a 10 Year whiskey this year, but it’s a really special one. At Michter’s it’s about never compromising on quality rather than maximizing sales.”
The bourbon is a single-barrel product. It is Kentucky-style rye made from a fair amount of corn and barley to give balance and added complexity to the spice of its rye grain. “This year’s Michter’s 10 Year Rye continues to provide a consistent, rich, and complex experience with beautiful spice and citrus surrounded by decadent chocolate, caramel, and fruit.
It is the exceptional balance of sweet and spice with a subtle hint of oak maturity that makes it so special to those who appreciate a Kentucky style rye.” observed Michter’s Master of Maturation Andrea Wilson.
We have a rich and long legacy of offering traditional American whiskeys of exceptional quality. With each of its limited production offerings aged to its peak maturity, our highly acclaimed portfolio includes rye, bourbon, sour mash whiskey, and American whiskey.
Currently all types of Michter’s are being allocated because demand exceeds supply. In October 2021, Michter’s was named the Most Admired American Whiskey in a survey conducted in 25 countries. In January 2022, it was named the #1 Top Trending American Whiskey brand by Drinks International in its Annual Brands Report.
