I found my first Michters bottle. It was one bottle only on the shelf and it was the small batch. As an intro to Michters I absolutely love it. I will continue to expand my collection with Michters products every chance I get on finding these gems!

I've wanted you to compare Michter's bottles for so long. I have the Small Batch, American, Shenk's and Sour Mash and love them all. I'm happy with each pour of these bottles. Thank you for this video!!! I had my own tasting with you as I watched!

I have always loved bourbon, now financially I can afford to try more out. Your channel has been very helpful in putting together my wish list. Thanks for your insights, looking forward to trying some Michters.

Oh I am such a fan of Michter’s… Tried everyone one I’ve been able to fine. So far my favorite is the Toasted Barrel Rye, incredible stuff. Cheers from Sweden! 🇸🇪

Great episode as usual David. Huge fan of Mitchers! Knowing the history of your channel, it’s hard to smile when you revealed 5th place.

Michter's rye is a personal favorite. The price is a touch steep, but it's so tasty, is a great rye for beginners or non-rye fans, and makes a delicious cocktail.

Love how you judge the whiskeys! great presentation!

If only David's promise about Michter's 10 aged as well as his first place pick. Great content as always David. Enjoyed it. Cheers!

Just opened a bottle of the sour mash tonight. I’m thoroughly enjoying it. I’ve had the American one before, but this one caught my eye. Glad I gave it a shot. Great breakdown. Looks like I have more to try from this distillery.

Great video review! I really like the sour mash and the American whiskey!

Tried my first Michters two weeks back I tried Small Batch one I loved it got it at restaurant called Whiskey Biscuit here in Colorado 👍🏻🥃

Always on the lookout for any of the Michters beyond the standard ones. All we get in pa are the standard the allocated ones are really hard to snag

Great video. I was able to get a 10 year at msrp this year but really wanted to find a 10 year rye. Hopefully I can stumble across one.

Michters is my favorite! I could toss all others and just keep Michters and be fine! It’s outstanding!!

I have the standard Michter's rye. It's got a decent amount of flavor for an 84 proofer.

Good video. Only one I have tried is michters American. Whiskey Vault recommended it and said it was so much better than bourbon because American whiskeys age in used barrels. Neck pour was ethanol and wet dog. After a few weeks it turned into pecan pie custard. It was good but not great. Basically just Watery caramel. At $45 per bottle, there are easily a dozen bourbons I would put above it. This has stopped me from buying any of their other offerings. Also Can’t find the 10 year anywhere near me but it sounds nice.

Great review.

Yes, you should be drinking Michters! My wife's entry to boubon. She used to watch your videos with me all the time and she called you "the Michter's guy". I haven't been able to find Michter's toasted, Michter's 10 year and I haven't bought Michter's Rye but it's on my radar as I've just really started enjoying ryes.

Michter's is always my go too. Bourbon or Rye is delicious, Sour Mash is pretty good, the American Whiskey is decent for the price.

I haven't tried any Michters yet. I'm visiting the distillery next month for a tasting and tour hoping to find a bottle that I love. I wonder if the gift shop will have any of the allocated bottles.

Michters is good stuff. Ive got 3 of the us-1 bottles.

Never been a fan of m10 bourbon. So I’m not surprised by this.

All the regular bottles are good. Rye is one of the best at that price and American is so crushable.

I got the small batch and the rye the other day. Allocated in my state, so i figured I’d get one of each. Still need to try them

I love that Michters rye in Manhattans

Just got a Michters toasted barrel barrel strength rye today. Can’t wait to try it. I like their American Whiskey.

It's okay, David. We're laughing With you!! In Upstate NY Shenks is $80, Michter's 10 is $250.

I'm at the 9:30 mark . David is about to be disappointed again ......

David have you had the toasted Bartell?

Cask strength rye is the only Michters I've ever liked

Where does the toasted barrel rate among the options?

Cool, I'm taking a Michters 10 rye to a tasting with some real pros.

I bet the M10 would have done way better if everything was bourbon. I love oaky bourbons, but they do stick out like a sore thumb when you drink something sweeter right before.

I would be great to see a Michter’s Rye showdown! Regular Rye, 10yr, barrel strength rye, and toasted rye. It would be great to hear your opinion on the nuances. Great video!

I have the sour mash and enjoying expensive in Japan at ¥ 7500

Yo…!!! This video was posted on my birthday!! Guess I’ll grab a bottle of Mitchers today. I’ll update on which one I picked up.

Well, here we go again, David's beloved Michter's 10 once again glaringly underperforms in a blind. Tsk! One consolation is, at least it was beat out by its brethren, and not by a Woodenville! I have complete confidence the forlorn bottle will open up with some time and survive to endure once again another blind tasting because we've all learned David is resolved to never give up on his Michter's 10, no matter what!

Gotta get a toasted in that blind

Buddy, it's the best

Not related to todays video, I can’t help notice the barrell craft gray label on the top shelf. Did you open or review it yet? Which batch is it? I’ve been eyeing one locally, and am curious if it’s worth the price. I have the normal batch 28 and 29 i really enjoy. Cheers thx

You need to try the 25 year rye

Just got me a Michter’s 10yr Single Barrel. Cannot wait to try it, then put it up against my Michter’s 10yr rye and Toasted Barrel

What barrel is your Michter's 10 bourbon? I have 21H2279 and it was a bummer when uncorked and the following couple weeks after. Now it's been a month and it's just now starting to turn a corner towards better sips. Maybe do this again on Groundhogs Day with the same lineup? 😂

👍

And the winner...Dickel Tobasco.😁

It's weird how some whiskies do worse in a blind. I noticed that with Laphroaig.

Have you considered that pouring the M10B into the jigger affects the taste? I bet when you're simply enjoying a pour not on video, you don't use the jigger.

don't get me wrong. michters is not bad, but these traits typically have me picking something else: 1. its all sourced (or the vast majority). their own juice is super young. 2. its low proof. 3. no age statements on "available" products . 4. kind of expensive for something that is 1-3.

Love me some Michters too and was hyped for that 10 yr right up until the point I tried it. I’ve had a few pours of others since then and it’s constantly underwhelming. Sometimes you gotta just call it what it is…overhyped. Lchaim!

Wooo

I started working at a big box liquor store a few months ago and had the opportunity to grab a Michter’s 10 for $115 w my discount, so upset I didn’t know what it was at the time!

Yep the rye was the best

3rd

The Michter's American is the only one in my state and not tested in this video?

Man, you just have to stop putting Michters 10 in blinds. Fails EVERY time. Today wasn't really fair with a neck pour but still... Jaime now has yet another one to harass you about ! Michters has always been an 'ok' for the money product for me, but I have never been able to sample any of your top 5 today so ?? Didn't know about the Shenks or Bombergers at all, so appreciate that insight!

Where is the US 1

How does this compare to jack daniels?

1st

Would be nice if you showed a close-up of the bottles, so we know what the heck you're talking about.

The sour mash does not seem like a rye at all more like a sweet bourbon and seems 51 % corn to me

You don’t have the regular barrel strength…. Definitely should be hunting that one over them all.

Michter’s is good but overpriced in my opinion… at least here in italy also their basic bottles are 50/60€

Yeah Michters 10 year is not that good, I think I traded mine for Midwinter.

Don’t beat yourself up, it’s a neck pour.

Why do you keep talking about how great the 10 year bourbon is, yet it continues to finish last in blinds..

The 10 yr. single barrel bourbon is one of the most overrated bourbons one can seek out; right after nearly everything from Buffalo Trace.

Overpriced & overrated IMO so not the greatest value. I'll skip it 99.9% of the time for a better value whiskey or local pick that I can usually get a cask strength for the same 50 bucks.

i hate to ask...but ...are you paid to taste these products...i hope the answer is no ?
