Michter's 10 Year Rye 2014 (L14096)

10 years. Single barrel. Contingent release. Michter's 10 Year Single Barrel Rye 2014 — over a decade from its original limited allocation, from Michter's program that releases single barrel rye only when specific barrels meet the Master Distiller's standard for 10-year maturity.

Like Michter's 20 Year Bourbon and 25 Year Bourbon, the 10 Year Single Barrel Rye is released on a contingent schedule — not annually but only when the Master Distiller determines available 10-year rye barrels have achieved exceptional quality. Each 10 Year Rye is a single barrel expression, meaning this bottle's liquid comes from one specific aging vessel at its particular natural proof.

The 2014 vintage is now over a decade from primary distribution — from the era before Michter's rebuilt their Louisville distillery production and before the brand's modern premium positioning was fully established.
