Michter's Barrel Strength Rye Whiskey 2025 750ml

Discover the bold sophistication of Michter’s 2025 Barrel Strength Rye Whiskey, a single-barrel, Kentucky Straight Rye bottled at natural cask strength (typically 107–115 proof, around 55% ABV)  — a standout in limited-edition rye releases. Crafted from Michter’s signature Kentucky-style mash bill (over 51% rye, balanced with corn and malted barley), this 2025 expression is matured in fire-charred American white oak barrels, entering at the unique low entry proof of 103 to unlock deeper wood extraction and complexity. Each batch emerges with a powerful yet polished nose combining butterscotch, cinnamon, cherry, crème brûlée, and spiced pastries, followed by a silky palate layered with ginger cookies, molasses, toffee, dark fruit, mint, and allspice . The finish delivers long, warming oak spice, citrus peel, black cherry, wintergreen, and dark chocolate notes, showcasing both presence and balance. With its unpredictable, readiness-driven release schedule marking a decade of acclaim since its debut in 2015, the 2025 offering—boasts serious collector appeal and mixology potential for Old Fashioneds or Manhattan variants . For rye enthusiasts seeking a luxurious, barrel-strength experience, Michter’s 2025 release is a rich, complex masterpiece that delivers both power and refinement.
