On Tuesday, Louisville’s Michter’s announced the release of its limited-edition 20 Year Kentucky Straight Bourbon, marking the first time the brand has unleashed this particular expression since 2022.
“It’s always a special event for us at Michter’s when we bottle and release some whiskey that is over two decades old,” Michter’s president Joseph J. Magliocco said in a press release. “Unlike Scotch and some other aged spirits, bourbon has to mature in a new barrel. Reaching ages beyond 15 years without the whiskey getting too woody is an achievement that our team strives for.”
