We’re talking about\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003eSour Mash Whiskey. \u003cem\u003eMichter’s\u003c\/em\u003e to be exact. Established in \u003cem\u003e1753\u003c\/em\u003e by \u003cem\u003eJohn Shenk\u003c\/em\u003e in Pennsylvania’s Blue Mountain Valley, they’re one of the\u003cem\u003e oldest active distilleries\u003c\/em\u003e in the United States. Teaming up with Michter’s President \u003cem\u003eJoseph J. Magliocco\u003c\/em\u003e in the 1990s, \u003cem\u003eRichard “Dick” Newman\u003c\/em\u003e resurrected the brand in Louisville, KY, where Michter’s have been bottling their exquisite Whiskeys, Bourbons and Ryes ever since.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cem\u003eMichter’s Original Sour Mash\u003c\/em\u003e was their most popular product during the 1970s and 80s, and now it’s back with a vengeance. Joining their \u003cem\u003eUS*1 line\u003c\/em\u003e in 2012, this Whiskey \u003cem\u003estays true\u003c\/em\u003e to the profile and palate of its predecessor. Michter’s dubbed its \u003cem\u003echampion \u003c\/em\u003eafter the Spirit’s production process, in which previously fermented mash is used as the starter for the new batch. Like making sourdough bread, except better. Because it’s Whiskey.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlthough its \u003cem\u003eunique\u003c\/em\u003e grain selection prevents it from being categorized as Bourbon or Rye, it doesn’t stop \u003cem\u003eMichter’s US*1 Sour Mash\u003c\/em\u003e from starting off like the former and finishing like the latter. It’s Michter’s way of masterfully pushing their mash bill envelope right to the edge of the Rye realm, without tipping over. Great to sip on its own, Sour Mash Whiskey is also \u003cem\u003eperfect\u003c\/em\u003e for a Bourbon based cocktail or a BBQ sauce ingredient to pour over your chicken on a hot summer’s day.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Michter's","offers":[{"title":"750ml","offer_id":52011748131137,"sku":null,"price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0997\/7223\/6097\/files\/Michter_sSourMash.jpg?v=1784846558","url":"https:\/\/heritagereserves.com\/products\/michter-s-original-sour-mash-whiskey","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
