Michter's US*1 Single Barrel Straight Rye
Michter's US*1 Single Barrel Straight Rye 70cl 42,4% vol.
This single-barrel rye whiskey from Michter's works a treat both neat and in cocktails. Peppery and spicy, this also displays refreshing orange notes, plus sweet toffee/butterscotch. Very moreish.
NOSE
Very aromatic and fresh. Almost minty, with lovely savoury edge, then measured spiciness comes through.
PALATE
Incredibly smooth mouthfeel for a rye, this is clean and balanced, then the caraway and fennel seed kicks in.
FINISH
Appealingly dry spiciness – impressive stuff.
