Michter’s US*1 Sour Mash was named Whisky of the Year in 2019 (Whisky of the Year by The Whisky Exchange). The Michter’s distillery was the first American distillery established in the United States in 1753. Prohibition in 1919 and other events forced Michter’s to close its doors to the public. It wasn’t until the 1990s that two businessmen partnered up and revived production. Michter’s doesn’t aim for cost-cutting in its manufacturing; instead, it invests in every production stage to create the best American whiskies:

• Air-dried wood, not in a kiln
• Wood toasted before being charred
• Barreled at 51.5% (instead of 62.5% in the industry)
• Exclusively in Single Barrel or highly limited Small Batch Michter’s: Ranked as the #1 top-trending American brand in the world by Drinks International. Michter’s US1 Sour Mash was elected Whisky of the Year in 2019 (Whisky of the Year by The Whisky Exchange). Made from a blend of barley, rye, and malt, this Michter’s US1 Sour Mash whiskey follows the distillery’s tradition from the 1970s and 1980s. The palate is punctuated with notes of caramel, corn, and ripe fruits.
