The Story
20 years. 2025 Edition. Michter's — the most current release in Michter's ultra-selective 20-year bourbon program, produced only when master of maturation Andrea Wilson determines available barrels have reached the quality threshold.
Michter's does not guarantee an annual 20-year release — the expression appears only when the distillery's aged stock meets the standard. The 2025 Edition joins the 2022 H2518 already in the Wooden Cork collection, offering a three-year comparison across two of the program's most recent releases. The 2025 Edition is the most current available expression from this ultra-limited program.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How does the 2025 Edition compare to the 2022 H2518 also in stock? Both are 20-year Michter's expressions from the same selective program. The 2025 Edition is the most current; the 2022 H2518 is three years older as a release, drawing on barrels that had additional time in wood by its bottling date. Together they offer a within-program release comparison across a three-year span.
