Tasting Notes
Michter's US*1 Sour Mash Toasted Barrel Finish is a whiskey that takes you on a delightful journey through a world of flavors. The nose greets you with a delightful blend of sweet cereal notes reminiscent of Golden Grahams, complemented by the zesty aroma of orange peel and a subtle hint of oaky smoke, adding a touch of mystique. As you take your first sip, you're enveloped in a harmonious dance of flavors – the sweetness of honey on toast, the richness of salted butter, the earthy vanilla pod notes, and a gentle kick of white pepper heat that lingers pleasantly on the palate. The finish is a delightful symphony of cinnamon spice, floral grains, and a final waft of smoke, leaving you craving for more. This whiskey is a true masterpiece, a result of the Michter's craftsmen finishing their classic Sour Mash Whiskey in custom toasted barrels, imparting a subtle smokiness that elevates the already sublime toffee, honey, and cinnamon notes to new heights.
