Michter's Toasted Barrel Bourbon 750ml
Michter's US*1 Toasted Barrel Finish Bourbon
Michter's US*1 Toasted Barrel Finish Bourbon is one of the most distinctive expressions in the Michter's lineup — a Kentucky straight bourbon that undergoes a secondary finishing period in a custom toasted (not charred) new American oak barrel. This additional maturation step imparts a unique layer of sweetness, vanilla, and spice that sets it apart from both standard bourbon and traditional barrel-finished expressions.
Produced at Michter's Fort Nelson Distillery in Louisville, KY, this release reflects the brand's commitment to non-chill filtration, careful barrel selection, and small-batch craftsmanship. The toasted barrel finish adds complexity without overwhelming the bourbon's natural character — a subtle but transformative touch that has made this one of Michter's most celebrated limited releases.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Toasted oak, caramel, vanilla, honey, dried apricot, and a hint of cinnamon
- Palate: Smooth and layered — brown sugar, baking spice, toasted wood, stone fruit, butterscotch, and a gentle sweetness from the secondary barrel that elevates the bourbon's natural grain character
- Finish: Medium-long and warm with lingering toasted oak, toffee, vanilla, and soft spice
