"Over the more than two decades since we restarted Michter's in Kentucky, we 
have had several years where we've chosen to hold back particular offerings," 
observed Michter's President Joseph J. Magliocco. "Our goal is to put out the 
greatest American whiskey. When we think something is already wonderful, but 
will become spectacular with a bit more aging, we have not been shy about 
waiting to release it. When it comes to whiskey, there's no substitute for 
patience and time."

"I'm proud to be at a company that is so laser focused on offering top quality 
whiskey. This continues the protocol set by our late Master Distiller Willie 
'Dr. No' Pratt," commented Michter's Master Distiller Dan McKee. Many years 
ago, Pratt earned this nickname from Michter's Executive Vice President Steve 
Ziegler for his refusal to release any whiskey until he felt it was just right.

The Louisville-based distiller plans to keep the barrels originally slated to 
be bottled this year for one further year of aging. Michter's Master of 
Maturation Andrea Wilson stated, "Bourbon enthusiasts often tell us how much 
they love our 10 Year Bourbon for its depth and complexity.  While we know our 
Michter's supporters will be disappointed, just know we are continuing to stay 
true to our philosophies of who we are as a company and as a brand by always 
delivering extraordinary whiskey to those who are willing to wait."

Michter's 10 Year Bourbon has a suggested retail price of $160 in the United 
States.

Michter's has a rich and long legacy of offering traditional American whiskeys 
of uncompromising quality. With each of its limited production offerings aged 
to its peak maturity, Michter's highly acclaimed portfolio includes bourbon, 
rye, sour mash whiskey, and American whiskey. Currently all types of Michter's 
are being allocated because demand exceeds supply. In October 2021, Michter's 
was named the Most Admired American Whiskey in a survey conducted in 25 
countries. In January 2022, Michter's was named the #1 Top Trending American 
Whiskey brand by Drinks International in their Annual Brands Report.

In addition to Michter's Fort Nelson Distillery and Michter's Shively 
Distillery, both located in Louisville, the company has its 205-acre farm and 
operations in Springfield, Kentucky. For more information, please visit
