Tasting Notes
Michter's US*1 Straight Rye is a delightful journey through the world of spices and richness. The nose greets you with the warmth of Werther's Original caramel candies, mingling with dry wood notes and a generous dose of spicy rye. A hint of blackcurrant adds a touch of fruitiness. On the palate, dried orange peel and stem ginger lead the way, followed by a symphony of brown sugar, cherry, hickory smoke, cumin, and buttered corn. The finish lingers with notes of new leather, caramel, cinnamon, peppercorn, and crisp apple. Crafted from a single barrel at the Michter's Distillery in Louisville, Kentucky, this exceptional rye whiskey showcases the artistry of their craft. It's a top-notch choice for crafting a classic Sazerac cocktail, allowing the rye's complex flavors to shine.
