Episode 470: The Best Release of 2024? Michter's 10 Yr Bourbon

[@CJP-Bourbon]

I sure hope to get a Michter's 10 Year release one of these years. Fantastic review as always Judge.

[@steveiauruzio3056]

Probably the best Bourbon I’ve had in the last year. Your review hits it head on. Picked it up today and wow, almost just wanted to stay with the nose all day. I thinks it is even better then last years release. My store had one more bottle left and went back to get that one too! If you can find this even at secondary prices, grab it!

[@BourbonJudge]

Lucky man!!

[@brettmchan2855]

I went to Louisville today to trade a guy for a michters 10 from 2020 and I was also able to fill my own barrel strength bourbon and a bomberger bundle

[@robertv4673]

Cheers and Go Blue!

[@brettmchan2855]

@robertv4673 thank you! GO.BLU3

[@BourbonJudge]

Go Blue for sure!

Great stuff Judge. The 2023 Michter’s 10 Bourbon was in my top 2 of last year. Hope to find one of these. 🥃

[@BourbonJudge]

You’ll love this one too Dave!

[@bendavis2967]

Great call Judge! This lives up to last year’s release and then some! Drinks older than 10 yr again and all of the nosing notes you mentioned are there. Salute 🥃

[@BourbonJudge]

Cheers Ben

[@brettheiner7125]

The M10s are so good - so refined.. Michter’s really is on to something with their low barrel entry proof. All of the best parts of aging and none of the bitter tannins…

[@BourbonJudge]

Absolutely

[@natecarlson6283]

I sure enjoy your videos Judge. Your personality is great and really comes through in your content. I wish I could have a sip with you sometime. Cheers!

[@BourbonJudge]

Maybe one day! Would be great to share a pour Nate. Cheers sir

[@sirmay50]

Learning from your experience, knowledge is rewarding and entertaining. Keep your content coming. I have been purchasing bourbon for a long time and still love the hunt! Great community!!! I can no longer justify spending $200.00 for a bottle that realistically would make the distillery a strong profit at $100.00. My New Year’s resolution is to stop spending stupid money for bourbon. I am a capitalist and appreciate profit. I also appreciate a solid value. Keep sipping, Cheers…

[@BourbonJudge]

Fair points

[@RJR2222]

Wow to follow up last year with a better bottle this year would be special. I always heard that their ryes were best. But maybe not anymore. Appreciate the review

[@zoolander221]

Watching you sip and talk about this, it doesn’t help me on the treadmill, lol. I will be on the lookout for damn sure. Cheers Judge

[@BourbonJudge]

Lol

[@Michael_Peters]

Judge- you usually say what’s your max secondary spend for a bottle. What’s the most you would pay for the ‘24 M10YB?

[@BourbonJudge]

$250

[@Michael_Peters]

@@BourbonJudge Thanks, Judge. Lucky enough to grab 2 this year. First was $129 at Costco and the second was $500. Talked it down to $290. Figure I’m doing okay… on average. Ha!

[@drgallup]

My brother has some friends with connections at Michters and they were comparing the 10 yr with the unobtainable 25 yr and they preferred this years 10!

[@BourbonJudge]

Wow!!🤩

[@jolkraeremeark6949]

12 year might just be the pinnacle.

[@highwayman1224]

Sipping on some Old Forrester 1920 Prohibition Style as I'm watching this and wishing it was that Michter's I was sipping on... 🤣🤣

[@BourbonJudge]

Lol

[@nickp5511]

Nice review! Picked one up today for 200.00

[@BourbonJudge]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@StevenScone]

You said it was single barrel? If it's that it can't have other barrels at different age in it unless it's Solara aged.

[@aaronberkowitz1803]

I thought the same thing!

[@BourbonJudge]

Various single barrels

[@bryanmacke]

hey Judge! can you share any info as to where you procured this fine bottle?! Hoping to get one

[@BourbonJudge]

I hear ya Bryan.. this bottle is extremely allocated, and super hard to find for sure. Most stores only get 1-2 if any…. Happy hunting sir.

[@charlest8373]

Hey, Judge, I heard a rumor (from a sales rep) that Sazerac was going to lower the age statement on some Eagle Rare in order to allow more product into the marketplace. Have you heard anything like that? Cheers!

[@BourbonJudge]

I have not heard that.. interesting

[@BBoy_PB]

I was lucky enough to pickup 2, 2024A bottles for msrp at Michter distillery morning drop

[@davefabian2942]

Love the enthusiasm 🥃

[@windy_city_beerman]

Great channel! Cheers 🍻

[@BourbonJudge]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@Neat.Bourbon]

Great video! Congratulations on scoring the 24’ release! The hunt is on for the rest of the country, haha. Cheers🥃

[@BourbonJudge]

Thanks 👏🏾

[@tonylema5334]

Looks like another gem, that I probably won’t be able to get my hands on!!!

[@BourbonJudge]

Any good bourbon bars nearby?

[@jcerda916]

I appreciate your analysis of the bourbon, I trust your judgment. Thank you

[@BourbonJudge]

I appreciate that!

[@hectorblanco9047]

I'm in PA, probably won't find it up here.

[@robertv4673]

Great stuff, Judge - always enjoy your content!

[@BourbonJudge]

Much appreciated!

[@blakenaylor1983]

Well I found the Jack Daniels 12 year, I wonder if I can find this too

[@BourbonJudge]

You got it…

[@BourbonondaBayou]

I always luck into a M10 thru conversation. Like one i got because i was buying an somewhat expensive cognac for my gf. I just asked the manager if he ever figured out what he was going to do with thot M10 he got. He said “i forgot i had that.” Went to the back, got it and asked “you want to buy it?” Yep! Sure did. A 2021. Got a 2023 in a similar way. Just asked

[@BourbonJudge]

Nice…

[@MichaelBortner-qk4zl]

With luck I can find one at a reasonable price. Cheers Judge 🥃🥃😎

[@kurtludington5986]

Good to hear your thoughts on this one! Will be another month before we see it 😅

[@BourbonJudge]

Kurt - always good to see your name. We have to collab soon. Saw your ASW pick photos. Congrats!!!

[@BourbonDrop]

Sounds like my pockets will be about $200 lighter.😂😂

[@BourbonJudge]

Pretty much..

[@JJ-nh8lv]

I haven't seen it. Or any 10 yr mitchers for that matter

[@philb6409]

So did you enjoy the Michters 10? 😂

[@BourbonJudge]

Just a little 😂
