Each bottle of Michter’s Single Barrel comes from a single barrel, carefully chosen to ensure superior quality and a unique aromatic profile. Aging in American oak barrels imparts notes of vanilla, honey, and sweet spices, accompanied by a touch of pepper and toasted cereals typical of rye. On the palate, there is a velvety, long, and harmonious texture, with a persistent finish that enhances the spicy notes.
Ideal to enjoy neat or with a cube of ice, this rye whisky pairs well with hearty dishes such as smoked meats or aged cheeses, highlighting its complex qualities and distinctive personality. A fine choice for those who appreciate handcrafted whiskies with great character.

Discover the spirits, production style and story of Michter’s.
Distillation
Production uses equipment including small pot stills (pot-to-pot system) and a large copper column (cited as 32" diameter and ~46 ft tall in the Shively facility). Fort Nelson also operates with historic pot stills and cypress wooden fermenters recovered from the old Pennsylvania Michter's; Shively uses steel fermenters for larger productions.
Ageing
Aging in new, charred American oak barrels, with use of staves toasted before charring for some products; barreling at a lower entry proof (around 103 proof) to promote a different maturation chemistry; use of heat cycling in warehouses to increase interaction between spirit and wood; many releases are single-barrel or very small batch.
