For the first time an American whiskey, Michter’s, topped the charts as The World’s Most Admired Whiskey
UK-based Drinks International published its annual top 50 list of The World’s Most Admired Whiskies based on voting by an Academy of independent whiskey experts (writers, educators, bar owners, and other specialists with no affiliation to any brand) from more than 20 countries. For the first time an American whiskey, Michter’s, topped the charts as The World’s Most Admired Whiskey. Michter’s is celebrating this extraordinary recognition with the December release of one of its rarest offerings: Michter’s 25-Year-Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon.
“This release commemorates a truly special moment for us,” commented Joseph J. Magliocco, Michter’s President. “The last time we released a 25-Year Bourbon was in 2020.”
The 25 Year Michter’s Bourbon barrels are personally selected by Michter’s Master Distiller Dan McKee and Michter’s Master of Maturation Andrea Wilson. Wilson observed, “This release of the 25-Year Kentucky Straight Bourbon is an outstanding flavour experience without the overly oaked, dusty old whiskey character. It is a wonderful journey with its transition through sweet and savoury depth, world spices, dark chocolates, fruit characters and nut oils almost as if you are eating through a box of fine chocolates. It is an exceptional whiskey for an exceptional achievement in the whiskey world.”
