We’re excited to announce that Michter’s Master Distiller Dan McKee and Michter’s Master of Maturation Andrea Wilson have approved the 2026 release of Michter’s 10 Year Kentucky Straight Bourbon.
McKee observed, “Because barrels even next to each other in the rickhouse don’t necessarily all age the same, we overage our whiskey and wait beyond the ten year mark and then select fully matured barrels for Michter’s 10 Year Bourbon. Our team is excited when we have 10 Year Bourbon that we feel is up to our high standards and ready to release.”
According to Wilson, “The 2026 release of Michter’s 10 Year Bourbon is again a smooth, rich, complex, and captivating pour that evokes feelings of warm, reminiscent appreciation of a great whiskey. With its rich array of flavors it continues to remind that you don’t have to have a high proof to get a rich, flavorful drinking experience.”
The 2026 release of Michter’s 10 Year Bourbon is 94.4 Proof (47.2% ABV) and has a suggested retail price of $195 for a 750ml bottle in the U.S.
