]]>Michter’s Single Barrel bourbon and rye are increasingly popular options. Even the small batch expressions of their mash are great daily drinkers. If you’re looking for a Michter’s Store Pick, though, you won’t find one. Michter’s doesn’t have a single barrel selection program like most distilleries, but they do have a lot of single barrel options, including:
There are also various expressions of all of these… like Michter’s Toasted Barrel Strength Rye, or 20, 25, and even 30 year versions of their bourbon and rye.

Of course, if you’re looking for something totally unique you can make a trip to Kentucky and visit the Michter’s Distillery. There, you can schedule special tours that include whiskey tastings, as well as the opportunity to fill your own bottle of Michter’s Barrel Strength Rye. So even though you can’t get an entire barrel selection, you can play a part in filling a bottle, with custom label, of unique Michter’s juice. This experience is definitely on my whiskey bucket list, even if it’s not a Michter’s Barrel Pick
I’m still holding out hope for a Michter’s barrel pick program in the future. Single barrel selections are the latest rage in Bourbon and Rye culture, and many distilleries are introducing great selection programs for stores, groups, or states to select great whiskey. It may not be long before Michter’s Distillery does the same.
In the meantime, maybe you can get your single barrel whiskey pick fix through some of these opportunities:
