"This will be the only release of our 10 Year Rye this year because we continue

to be in a position where we need to allocate our whiskeys," commented

Michter's President Joseph J. Magliocco. "I am very grateful to our team for

the terrific job they have been doing." While Michter's Fort Nelson Distillery

has been shut since mid-March, Michter's Shively Distillery has continued to

distill and bottle.

"I just love Kentucky style rye because it has not only great spice, but also

the richness and the balance that comes from having a fair amount of corn and

malted barley in the mashbill. And I think the 2020 release of our 10 Year Rye

is an outstanding example of Kentucky style rye," said Michter's Master

Distiller Dan McKee.

"There is nothing quite like really good rye distillate that's been aged with

thoughtful care for over a decade in a barrel that was toasted and then charred

and in a warehouse that has been heat cycled to produce a deep, rich flavor

profile perfect for sipping," commented Michter's Master of Maturation Andrea

Wilson.

The suggested U.S. retail price per 750ml bottle of Michter's 10 Year Rye is $160.

Beyond its main distillery in the Shively section of Louisville, Michter's

operations extend to two other sites in Kentucky. In Springfield, Michter's is

farming estate grown grain on its 145-acre property, while in downtown

Louisville, Michter's has its second distillery in the historic Fort Nelson

building. Situated in a prime location on West Main Street opposite Louisville

Slugger and on the same block as the Frazier Museum, Michter's Fort Nelson

Distillery features the legendary pot still system from Michter's Pennsylvania

Distillery. When open, it also has educational tours with whiskey tastings as

well as The Bar at Fort Nelson, which features classic cocktails curated by

spirits and cocktail historian David Wondrich.

Michter's makes highly acclaimed, limited production whiskeys. Michter's is

renowned for its single barrel rye, small batch bourbon, single barrel bourbon,

and small batch American whiskey.  For more information, please visit
