The 2019 bottling will start shipping from Michter’s Shively Distillery to distributors and importers in early November.
“It’s an elegant bourbon with lots of depth and cascading flavors,” said Michter’s President Joseph J. Magliocco. Older barrels in Michter’s rickhouses receive extra attention from the production team. “We have a protocol whereby our Master Distiller Dan McKee and I taste our most mature lots of whiskey more frequently to determine peak quality,” said Michter’s Master of Maturation Andrea Wilson.
The proof of this 2019 release is 114.2, and the suggested U.S. retail price for a 750ml bottle is $700.
