MICHTER’S 10 YO KENTUCKY STRAIGHT BOURBON Single Barrel Kentucky, Straight Bourbon Whiskey, 47.2%, 750ml Aged in fire-charred, new American White Oak Barrels This is the first release of the 10 Year Bourbon since 2021. Mature in age and truly exceptional in quality, Michter’s 10 Year Single Barrel Kentucky Straight Bourbon has earned its place as an enduring favourite of the most discerning whiskey connoisseurs. The “Best American Whiskey” according to Food & Wine magazine, their 10 Year Single Barrel Bourbon represents the culmination of over a decade of patient aging in specially chosen new charred American white oak barrels. When a private barrel selection bottling of this whiskey sold for £166,000 (US$ 209,462) at an auction in London on July 12th, 2020, it shattered the previous $78,000 record for a barrel of bourbon that had been set at a Christie’s auction. Often much older than the age statement on the label, only a select few barrels age with the elegance required for inclusion in these highly limited releases. Tasting Notes: Big and bold dark toffee and caramel, charred oak, maple syrup and vanilla. This is an original cypress wood fermenter from Michter’s Pennsylvania Distillery. This fermenter as well as the original pot-to-pot still system are being used for whiskey production at Michter’s Fort Nelson Distillery. 58 THE NAVIGATOR | EXPRESSION
