Description

The 10 year ols Michter's Kentucky Straight Bourbon is an exceptional example of what a bourbon can be. Mature in age and quality it has rightfully earned its place amongst the most discerning whiskey connoisseurs. Labeled "Best American Whiskey" by Food & Wine magazine.

Michter's Distillery has gone through a few name changes, originally known as Shenk's, and later Bomberger's. In 1753 it was John Shenk who founded the distillery in Schaefferston Pennsylvania. Through the Mid-1800's Abraham Bomberger took over and in eventually landed with Lou Forman who combined his sons names Michael and Peter to form Michter's distillery.

The brand almost didn't survive. In 1989 it was closed due to bankruptcy but saved by Joseph Magliocco and Richard Newman who relocated to the heart of American whiskey country, Kentucky.
