2021 Michter's US-1 Limited Release Toasted Barrel Finish Bourbon Whiskey 750ml
The 2021 Michter’s US-1 Limited Release Toasted Barrel Finish Bourbon Whiskey is a masterful expression of craftsmanship, offering a bold yet refined drinking experience. This limited-edition bourbon begins with Michter’s celebrated US-1 Bourbon as the foundation, already known for its well-rounded notes of vanilla, caramel, and oak. It then undergoes a secondary maturation in specially toasted barrels that are air-dried for 18 months, giving the whiskey a unique depth and complexity.

On the palate, this bourbon delivers a harmonious blend of sweetness and spice, with notes of maple syrup, dark chocolate, and a subtle nuttiness evolving into a lingering, warm finish. At 91.4 proof, it strikes the perfect balance between intensity and smoothness, making it equally enjoyable neat or with a splash of water. Each sip of the Toasted
