While they regularly sample all the Michter's barrels to see how the whiskey is aging, they pay even extra special attention to the barrels once they are over 17 years old. Michter's considers 17 to 20 years the "Fork In The Road Point" when certain barrels of whiskey can achieve an extraordinary level of quality. It is these particular barrels that Master Distiller Pamela Heilmann personally selects for our very limited bottling of Michter's 20 Year Limited Release Kentucky Straight Bourbon. Intense notes of black cherry, rich molasses, honeysuckle, roasted pecans, toasted charred oak. 114.2 Proof
