Their proprietary US*1 Bourbon is given an additional finish in custom made barrels that consist of wood that is air-dried for 18 months and lightly toasted instead of charred.

Tasting Notes
"The blend seems more harmonious and soothing than the previous one. The Michter's style of heavy baking spice integrates well with sweet apples, vanilla, patchouli and chicory roasted coffee. The finish blankets these flavors in pipe tobacco and leather, although there's a bit of a sting at the end which is best tempered with some ice."
