The 2024 joins 2016, 2018, 2019, 2021, and 2022 as documented approved vintages, with gaps in years when no available barrels met the standard.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAt 20 years, Michter's sour mash production has achieved deep oak integration, dried fruit concentration, and the leather complexity that nearly two decades of Kentucky barrel cycling produces. The 2024 at 20 years is the most recent approved expression of this standard — the current state of Michter's most exceptional 20-year barrel inventory as assessed by two of the most rigorous palates in American whiskey production.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep amber with rich mahogany tones from two decades of barrel contact.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Caramel, vanilla, and dried fruit with a deep oak presence — the complexity of 20-year Michter's maturation.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Smooth and full-bodied — dark fruit, leather, warm spice, and caramel in a fully integrated expression.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long and evolving — warm oak and spice through a deeply satisfying close.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Michter's Distillery, Louisville, Kentucky\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20 years\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eRelease:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2024 — most recent vintage\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eApproved by:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dan McKee (Master Distiller) + Andrea Wilson (Master of Maturation)\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003eBrowse all \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/woodencork.com\/collections\/bourbon\"\u003ebourbon at Wooden Cork\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eWhat years has the Michter's 20 Year been released?\u003c\/strong\u003e Documented approved vintages include 2016, 2018, 2019, 2021, 2022, and 2024 — with gaps in years when no barrels met the standard.
