Michters 20 Year Old Bourbon 2019 750ml Bottle

Michters 20 Year Old Bourbon 2019 750ml – Bottle Only, No Box

While older editions of the 20 year old were presumed to be wheated Bernheim whiskey sourced from the Kentucky Bourbon Distillers warehouses at Willett, whiskey author Fred Minnick has confirmed in his book, Bourbon Curious, that the source of Michter’s Kentucky labelled products are sourced from Brown-Forman. 

The new owners of the Michter’s name, Chatham Imports, started a new company called Michter’s Distillery LLC, and operated as a Non-Distiller Producer (NDP) for a number of years, meaning they sourced their whisky from other distilleries and bottled it under their own name. Many of these releases have been incredibly sought after, with early batches of their single barrel bourbons rumoured to have been sourced from the legendary Stitzel-Weller.

In 2015 they constructed a new Michter’s Fort Nelson distillery in Shively, KY and have begun barrelling their own stock ever since. With the construction of a new warehousing facility in 2018, it is expected this new Michter’s will soon be bottling all of its own whiskey, developing an important legacy of its own.
