2019 Release of Michter’s 10 Year Rye Arriving in Stores Next Month
Michter’s Distillery has announced that the 2019 release of Michter’s 10 Year Single Barrel Kentucky Straight Rye will begin shipping in July. This will be the only release of Michter’s 10 Year Rye this year, with the distillery citing ongoing supply shortages for the limited availability of their older, age stated products.
The 2019 bottling of Michter’s 10 Year Rye will also mark the first release of whiskey by Michter’s newly appointed Master Distiller, Dan McKee.
“In my years at Michter’s, I’ve seen how incredibly focused our previous Master Distillers Pam Heilmann and Willie Pratt have been on waiting to release whiskey till it was just right,” said McKee. “Working with our Master of Maturation Andrea Wilson, I will continue that tradition of only releasing whiskey that makes us extremely proud.”
Michter’s President Joseph J. Magliocco commented, “Before he moved up to the position of Master Distiller, Dan did a fantastic job in the role of Distiller at Michter’s and was a key member of our tasting panel. Having worked with Dan for some time now, I know that our distillery is in great hands.”
The suggested retail price of Michter’s 10 Year Rye is $160 for a 750ml bottle.
