Michter's 10 Year Old Single Barrel Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey

A highly coveted, ultra-allocated "unicorn" rye, this limited-release expression represents the pinnacle of American distilling artistry. Hand-selected from individual fire-charred white oak barrels, Michter's 10 Year Rye prioritizes absolute quality over yield, making it an essential acquisition for serious collectors and connoisseurs.

Key Attributes

  • Highly Allocated Rarity: Extremely limited annual production. Each bottle features a unique, handwritten barrel number on the neck.

  • Low Entry Proof: Barreled at a lower proof than industry standards to allow wood sugars to dissolve gently, yielding an exceptionally rich, velvety mouthfeel.

  • Decade-Old Maturation: Ten full years of aging tempers the aggressive spice of traditional rye into a deeply complex, mature harmony.

Tasting Profile

  • Nose: Dark toffee, crème brûlée, toasted pecans, orange zest, and a hint of fresh mint.

  • Palate: Full-bodied and layered. Rich butterscotch and dark cacao give way to warm clove, rye spice, and cracked black pepper.

  • Finish: Exceptionally long and warm, leaving notes of charred oak, premium leather, and baking spice.
