Michter's 20 Year Bourbon 2021 Release is a limited Kentucky straight bourbon from Michter's, marking one of the brand’s prized older age-statement releases. It is positioned for serious collectors and premium gifting
From the Producer
Michter's traces its name to a Pennsylvania distilling site and was revived as a Kentucky operation by Chatham Imports in the 1990s, now running a distillery in Shively and a downtown Louisville site. The house is known for holding whiskey back rather than releasing on schedule, a practice associated with former master distiller Willie Pratt, and for filling barrels at a lower entry proof than the industry norm, which is intended to draw a different set of compounds from the wood. The 20 Year is released only in the years the team judges the barrels ready, so editions are not annual and each release year stands alone.
