Speciality Brands is launching four 2025 limited editions from Michter’s Distillery in the UK this March, headlined by the ultra-premium 20 Year Bourbon. The lineup also includes Michter’s Toasted Barrel Finish Sour Mash, 10 Year Rye, and 10 Year Bourbon, all available under allocation at key partners.
The 20 Year Bourbon (57.1% ABV, £2,350) represents the flagship of the release. It has matured for two full decades in first-use charred American white oak barrels.
Official tasting notes from the brand describe the whiskey as “a profoundly expressive whiskey with exceptional depth featuring deep vanilla, toffee, chocolate, spice and fruit notes.” The bottle features Michter’s signature glass design with a wax seal, housed in a collector’s gift box.
