Tasting Characteristics
Fruity, easy to drink, earthly, with notes of pepper, orange, butterscotch and oak.
The process
What makes Michter's US*1 Rye Whiskey so special:
• Comes from a single barrel
• Barrels are dried with air, naturally (18 - 36 months)
• Barrels are toasted, before being charred, to slightly caramelize wood sugars
• Filling of the barrels at lower ABV (51.5% vol, instead of the 62.5% industry standard)
• Larger "angel's share", because of the heat
• Selected chill filter protocol for each product
Served
Enjoy on the rocks, plain or with drops of mineral water. Also ideal for a cocktail.
