Michter’s Straight Rye is one of the absolute better rye whiskeys I’ve ever tasted. It is one of those I could well have on the shelf and return to again and again.
I had the pleasure of tasting it at a whisky fair and compared to some of the other rye whiskeys I tasted that day, I must say it came over the finish line in an even first place with Pikesville.
