Michter’s US★1 Sour Mash Whiskey revives the beloved 1970s and 1980s classic that once defined the distillery. The “Sour Mash” name refers to a traditional whiskey-making process, similar to sourdough bread-making, where previously fermented mash kickstarts a new fermentation. With its unique grain selection, this whiskey defies categorization as either a rye or a bourbon, offering a truly distinct taste profile.

Warm notes of toasted burnt sugar are complemented by spice, smoky fruit, candied cherries, and honeyed vanilla. It begins with the richness of a bourbon and finishes with the boldness of a rye, creating a dynamic and satisfying experience.

Reintroduced in 2012 as part of the US★1 line, Michter’s Sour Mash remains a favorite among whiskey enthusiasts, celebrating its heritage while delivering exceptional quality and flavor.
