In a category rich with heritage, Michter’s US*1 Single Barrel Rye distinguishes itself through precision and polish. Crafted using American rye grain and matured to perfection in fire-charred new oak barrels, this expression revives the legacy of traditional Kentucky-style rye with an uncompromising eye toward quality. Each barrel is hand-selected, offering a unique balance of bold spice and refined character. This is rye whiskey elevated to a statement of sophistication. Combined with Cocchi Vermouth Di Torino for the perfect Manhattan.

Freshly cracked rye grain leads the aromatic profile, followed by an elegant mix of citrus oil, honeycomb, and toasted oak. Delicate herbal notes—mint leaf, thyme and vanilla bean linger.

Crisp and vibrant, yet remarkably smooth. Layers of spice unfold—white pepper, cinnamon stick, and clove—balanced by a silky undercurrent of caramel, orange zest, and charred oak. Mid-palate reveals a touch of dark chocolate and fennel, giving dimension and length. Finish: Long, dry, and warming with a lasting echo of rye spice, citrus peel, and hints of toasted almond. It leaves a clean, resonant impression—refined yet distinctly expressive.
