Updated March 2026.
There is no official “best Michter’s bourbon.” The US★1 Kentucky straight bourbon page on michters.com prints 45.7% Alc./Vol. and 91.4 proof. A 1.5-ounce pour is 1.14 NIAAA drinks. House copy says each small batch is held in a tank sized for a maximum of twenty barrels — that is brand language, not a TTB class. Distilled and bottled in Kentucky. 10 Year and barrel-strength SKUs are different bottles. No invented mash % or 2026 MSRP.

What the bourbon page prints
| SKU | Official cite | 1.5 oz drinks |
|---|---|---|
| US★1 Kentucky straight bourbon | 91.4 / 45.7% | 1.14 |
| US★1 rye / sour mash / American | Different classes — read those pages | From labeled ABV |
| 10 Year / barrel strength | Limited; confirm the neck | Do the math |
| Mash-bill % | Not printed | — |
A 750 mL 45.7% bottle is about 19 drinks. Four US★1 pours are about 4.6 drinks. “Craft” is still not a TTB class. Pour math: whiskey drinks.
