Michter's 25 Year Old Cask Strength Bourbon Whiskey (700ml) - 2017 Release

This ultra limited, 360-bottle run is something of a landmark release. The last time a 25 Year Old Bourbon was offered by Michter's was in 2008. The investment upside on these releases seems to have no limits at present. This bottling came out at 116.2 proof (58.1% ABV). We have one only to sell.

On a short list the most desirable, super premium American whiskeys, Pappy Van Winkle is usually near the top – if you can find it. But there’s another name in town: “Michter’s”, with roots going back to the 18th century. For scarcity, reputation and market value, Michter’s is now outdoing Van Winkle on every score. The ultra-aged releases are periodic and therefore actually far rarer than Pappy’s which are annual. Many consider older Michter's superior to the equivalent Van Winkles, especially if you prefer your whiskey to not be overly oaky. To top it off, a Michter’s 25 Year Old Rye has reached $8000 / bottle. Or there’s a 25 Year old for US $10,000 at Wally’s Liquor in the States. Take your pick. That’s the direction this brand is headed.
