The 15th Edition of the Parker’s Heritage Collection showcases an 11-year-old Heavy Char Wheat Whiskey that’s as bold as it is refined. Distilled with a unique wheat mashbill and aged in heavily charred barrels, it delivers deep layers of oak, toasted caramel, and subtle spice. Bottled at barrel proof, this limited-release whiskey is a must-have for collectors, enthusiasts, and those who appreciate rare, complex expressions. Whether you're savoring it neat or securing it for your top shelf, this release stands as a true testament to Parker’s legacy.

Heavy Char Rye Whiskey 8 Year is the 13th edition in the Parker's Heritage Collection, named after the late Heaven Hill master distiller Parker Beam. This marks the first Kentucky straight rye for the collection. Also, ordinarily Heaven Hill uses char #3 barrels for most of its products. In this case, char #5 barrels -- charred an additional 50 seconds more than char #3 level -- are used. Heavy Char Rye aged for 8 years and 9 months on the seventh floor of rickhouse Y. Bottled without chill-filtration at 52.5% ABV. At 105-proof it lands with a bit of smoke, ample vanilla, background notes of banana bread and pine, and a warming finish that leaves a trace of baking spice. It's very well balanced, with spice to punch through the rich oak influence and complexity that keeps one coming back for another pour.

I.W. Harper 101 Proof Gold Medal Bourbon (1970's Vintage Edition)

The Bold Icon. 101 Proof Intensity. A Rare Legend of the Bernheim Era.

In the world of vintage "dusty" bourbon, the 101-proof expressions from I.W. Harper are the stuff of legends. While the standard 86 proof was built for the casual sipper, the 101 Proof Gold Medal was engineered for the connoisseur. This is a high-proof time capsule from the mid-to-late 20th century, offering a level of richness, spice, and "old-school" Kentucky muscle that has largely vanished from modern shelves.

The Vintage Profile: High-Proof Heritage

Distilled at the historic Bernheim Distillery during the height of its craftsmanship, the 101 proof expression carries the same elegant, corn-forward sweetness of the brand but delivers it with a concentrated punch. The extra ABV preserves the essential oils and esters, resulting in a significantly "chewier" and more aromatic experience.

• Nose: Intense and inviting. Deep aromas of burnt sugar, maple syrup, and dark cherries. Beneath the sweetness lies the classic vintage notes, a mix of old leather, cigar box, and a hint of herbal mint.

• Palate: Full-bodied and explosive. The 50.5% ABV carries heavy notes of buttery toffee, cinnamon-red-hot candies, and dark cocoa. It possesses a remarkable "viscosity" that coats the palate, showcasing the quality of the grains used decades ago.

• Finish: Long, spicy, and triumphant. A warming waves of charred oak, peppercorn, and vanilla bean that refuses to quit.

The Bourbon Collector's Perspective

The 101 Proof I.W. Harper is increasingly difficult to find, as much of this stock was originally designated for the international export market, particularly Japan, where it became a cult favorite. Finding a well-preserved bottle today is like discovering a lost masterwork. It is the perfect bridge between the approachable Gold Medal profile and the raw power of a cask-strength "dusty."

This release comes three months after Michter's was named The World's Most Admired Whiskey for an unprecedented third time. In August, Drinks International published the 2025 list of the World's Most Admired Whiskies. The rankings are determined by an international academy consisting of 100 independent global drinks buyers, journalists, bartenders and whisky experts, and it includes legendary distillers from Scotland, Japan, Ireland, and beyond.

By law bourbon must be aged in a brand new barrel, which imparts flavor, color and oak character more quickly than a used barrel. To age a whiskey that will taste wonderful after two decades in a first-use barrel is an extremely difficult endeavor that requires a skillful balance of art and science. I believe that people will appreciate the thoughtful and conscientious work of our production team when they taste this exceptional whiskey," commented Michter's President Joseph J. Magliocco.

Barrel management and precisely controlled warehouse conditions are critical to the quality of aged whiskey. Master of Maturation Andrea Wilson oversees both of these important areas for Michter's. Wilson observed, "Details matter when it comes to aging bourbon gracefully. Michter's 20 Year Bourbon is an exemplary representation of how oak can be used to deepen vanilla, toffee, chocolate, spice, fruit, and confectionery notes that enhance complexity in bourbon. We hope that everyone who gets the opportunity to taste this product is able to experience the beloved attributes of a beautiful, timeless bourbon crafted through intentional aging."

Wild Turkey Rare Breed is a “barrel proof bourbon”, meaning it has no added water to lower the proof or dilute the flavor after it’s been distilled. It’s a unique marriage of Wild Turkey 6, 8, and 12-year-old stocks, giving it a remarkably smooth flavor.

The highly anticipated 2018 edition of Garrison Brothers Cowboy Bourbon is comprised of 182 barrels. Dubbed "piggy bank barrels" by master distiller Dennis Todd for their choice characteristics, they were matured for approximately five years and then dumped at the end of 2017 to rest and marry together. The result is an approximately 134-proof cask strength release with a total batch size of 4,725 bottles.

Mature in age and truly exceptional in quality, Michter’s 10 Year Single Barrel Kentucky Straight Bourbon has earned its place as an enduring favorite of the most discerning whiskey connoisseurs. The “Best American Whiskey” according to Food & Wine magazine, our 10 Year Single Barrel Bourbon represents the culmination of over a decade of patient aging in our specially chosen, new charred American white oak barrels. Sweet and grainy: corn bread slathered in honey, johnnycakes with cherry jam. Fizzy cream soda mixed with a bit of varnish segues into warm leather and a hint of summer-warmed dry grass, which is amplified with water. This is a very well-integrated whiskey with a lovely balance between creamy and spicy. There’s a full, rich, toffee sweetness throughout, balancing the earthy, humus-like bass notes in the mid palate. The finish is also very reminiscent of soda pop, almost giving the impression of carbonation, with a lingering muted spiciness.
