Mature in age and truly exceptional in quality, Michter’s 10 Year bourbon Single Barrel Kentucky Straight Bourbon has earned its place as an enduring favorite of the most discerning whiskey connoisseurs. The “Best American Whiskey” according to Food & Wine magazine, our 10 Year Single Barrel Bourbon represents the culmination of over a decade of patient aging in specially chosen, new charred American white oak barrels. When a private barrel selection bottling of this whiskey sold for £166,000 (US$ 209,462) at an auction in London on July 12th 2020, it shattered the previous $78,000 record for a barrel of bourbon that had been set at a Christie’s auction.

The 10-Year Rye, 10-Year Bourbon and 20-Year Bourbon expressions reflect the exceptional results of uncompromising craftsmanship and Kentucky’s unrivaled climate for aging outstanding whiskey. Often much older than the age statement on the label, only a select few barrels age with the elegance required for inclusion in these highly limited releases.
For background and before starting the review, Michter’s 10 Year Single Barrel Bourbon, just like the 10 year single rye, is sourced from an undisclosed Kentucky Distiller. If it’s the same source as the rye, it could be Old Forester, but I can’t say for sure. And while it’s sourced for now, Michter’s is aging their own bourbon, so they’ll likely switch over at some point, but who really knows when.
Because none of this is ever done in a vacuum (unless you do these blind, which I don’t), yes I know people rave about it, think its amazing, so on and so forth. Now I finally have the chance to decide for myself, so let’s find out if it’s worth the purchase and meets the hype in this Michter’s 10 Year Single Barrel Bourbon review.
