Michters Single Barrel Rye

Michter's US*1 Single Barrel Straight Rye Whiskey is made primarily of rye grains, though the exact amount is undisclosed. Once the grains have been fermented, they are distilled through a copper pot still. The barrels are aged in a heat-cycled warehouse, which forces the wood to expand and contract in a more controlled environment. Michter's regulates the barrels and eventually decides when the whiskey has reached the company’s desired flavor profile and not necessarily a desired age.

Spice with peppery notes, citrus, butterscotch, oak.
