Michter’s US 1 Original Sour Mash [700ML]

Description

Looking for an American whiskey that bridges bourbon tradition with unique character and complexity?

As a certified spirits specialist at Mr. Chow’s Liquor Store, I’m excited to present Michter’s US 1 Original Sour Mash, a distinctively crafted American whiskey that stands apart from conventional bourbons. Unlike traditional bourbon mash bills, this sour mash expression undergoes a proprietary process that creates remarkable smoothness and depth. While bourbon enthusiasts often gravitate toward Maker’s Mark 46 Bourbon, Michter’s offers a more nuanced profile, and those exploring rye characteristics should also consider Bulleit Rye American Whisky for comparison.

• Distillery: Michter’s Distillery – America’s first whiskey company, tracing heritage to 1753
• Region: Kentucky, USA – legendary bourbon country terroir
• ABV: 40% – accessible strength allowing intricate flavors to shine without overwhelming heat
• Volume: 700ml
• Maturation: American white oak barrels with proprietary toasting process
• Tasting Notes: Nose reveals warm caramel and butterscotch with subtle vanilla undertones. Palate delivers creamy toffee, dried fruit, and hints of baking spices. Finish is remarkably smooth with lingering sweetness and gentle oak tannins
• Best Served: Neat in a Glencairn glass at room temperature, or with a single large ice cube to open aromatics

Our spirits specialists at Mr. Chow’s Liquor have found this expression particularly versatile for Malaysian whiskey drinkers transitioning from sweeter styles. After evaluating hundreds of American whiskey expressions, this stands out for its approachable complexity at 40% ABV.

Ideal for: Chinese New Year gift-giving, corporate hampers, or building a serious home bar collection.
