Frequently asked
What is "sour mash"?
Traditional American whiskey production method. Some of the previous fermentation mash is added to each new fermentation — like sourdough bread starter. Provides consistency, controls acidity, and prevents wild bacterial growth. Nearly all American whiskey (Bourbon, Tennessee, Rye) uses sour mash — Michter's specifically highlights this traditional method in the "Sour Mash" naming.
What is Michter's heritage?
Original Michter's Distillery in Pennsylvania dates to 1753 — one of America's oldest distilleries. Closed in 1990. Modern Michter's (revived by Chatham Imports in the 1990s) honours this heritage with the "US*1" designation and craft-focused positioning. Now operates own Kentucky distillery.
