The Michter’s US*1 Small Batch Sour Mash is an American whiskey that embodies the artisanal elegance of Kentucky, the historic land of bourbon and whiskey production. Carefully produced in small batches, this whiskey uses the sour mash method, a traditional process that helps ensure consistency and purity of the final product by mixing a portion of fermented mash with the new fermentation.

The result is a spirit with a rich and complex character, releasing notes of vanilla, caramel, and sweet spices, accompanied by light toasted and ripe fruit hints. On the palate, there is a perfect harmony between softness and structure, with a persistent and warm finish that highlights the authentic soul of American whiskey.

The Michter’s US*1 is perfect to be enjoyed neat, with a splash of water to enhance its aromas, or as the base for sophisticated cocktails. It pairs well with smoked meats, aged cheeses, and dark chocolate desserts, enhancing the aromatic nuances of each pairing.

A sensory experience that tells the passion and tradition of one of the most renowned distilleries in the United States.

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.
