Michter's US*1 Toasted Barrel Finish Sour Mash is distilled and bottled in Kentucky. The whiskey starts in fire-charred new American white oak barrels and is then aged in a second custom barrel made from 18-month air-dried toasted wood.
As a devourer of pie, the 2022 Michter’s Toasted Barrel is like drinking pie in a glass. The sugars from the toasted barrel do sweeten the bourbon, but even though the whiskey is not tannic, the oak dries my palate too much.
