Michter’s US*1 Sour Mash Whiskey revives the historic sour mash process that made Michter’s famous.

Produced at Michters Distillery in Louisville, Kentucky, it matures in charred new American oak barrels, developing a rich, balanced profile. Though not classified as bourbon or rye, it delivers a smooth, distinctive character that stands out.
