Michter’s Master of Maturation Andrea Wilson said, “These barrels are at just the right point to highlight the beautiful nuances of a great rye whiskey. This release is a powerhouse.”
Michter’s President Joseph J. Magliocco commented, “Our team has been turning out some wonderful Kentucky style ryes over the years, and this 2021 release continues that trend.” Master Distiller Dan McKee observed, “I was really happy when we tasted these barrels. This release has so much of what I look for in a rye.”
