"Crafted from select American corn, which is mashed, fermented and then distilled. After maturing in charred American oak barrels, the bourbon is double-barreled, or finished, in custom casks that are composed of wood that has been air-dried for 18 months and toasted but not charred. Michter's has a slightly copper reddish color, along with an aroma of burnt caramel, espresso and dark berries. The aroma gives way to notes of milk chocolate, creamy vanilla, honey and ginger on the palate, that are subtly complemented by a touch of smoke. The finish is front-forward and warming, with notes of cloves and peppers."
