Michter's US-1 Toasted Barrel Finish Rye Whiskey is a limited release that exemplifies the distillery's innovative approach to traditional rye whiskey. This expression begins with Michter's US-1 Kentucky Straight Rye, which is then aged further in a second custom-made barrel. This second barrel is constructed from 24-month air-dried wood and toasted to precise specifications, enhancing the whiskey's flavor profile. The result is a unique rye whiskey with enhanced spice notes, delicate chocolate overtones, balanced by vanilla and honey, hints of roasted nuts and dates, and a lingering finish of burnt brown sugar reminiscent of crème brûlée complemented by some smoky campfire highlights.
