Michter's Master Distiller Pamela Heilmann Approves 2017 Release of 10 Year Bourbon
LOUISVILLE, Ky., March 21, 2017 Shortly after the induction of Michter's Master Distiller Emeritus Willie Pratt into Whisky Magazine's Hall of Fame, Michter's Master Distiller Pamela Heilmann is celebrating with the release of Michter's 10 Year Single Barrel Kentucky Straight Bourbon.
In a ceremony held in New York on February 28th, Whisky Magazine inducted Willie Pratt as the 40th member of its Hall of Fame. The one other Hall of Fame inductee that day was Julian Van Winkle. "Willie is like a walking bourbon encyclopedia, and it's fitting to release our 10 Year Bourbon after his Hall of Fame induction," said Heilmann. This marks the first special release of a Michter's bourbon during Heilmann's tenure as Master Distiller.
"Willie is an inspiration to all of us who have had the opportunity to work with him," said Joseph J. Magliocco, Michter's President. "The quality of this terrific 10 Year Bourbon release underlines Pam's commitment to uphold the incredibly high standards Willie has set for all Michter's releases."
Upon her promotion at Michter's in 2016, Heilmann became the first woman to serve as Master Distiller at a Kentucky Distillers' Association distillery since Prohibition. Prior to her years at Michter's, she ran Booker Noe Distillery, at that time the largest bourbon distillery in the world, where she was Distillery Manager.---
The suggested U.S. retail price per 750ml bottle of Michter's 10 Year Bourbon is $120.

Irish Whiskey Category Soars in the United States
WASHINGTON, D.C. – This St. Patrick’s Day, more Americans will be toasting with a dram of high-end Irish Whiskey, according to the Distilled Spirits Council.
With the booming consumer interest in brown spirits, Irish Whiskey has seen substantial growth over the last decade. In 2016, Irish Whiskey volumes were up 18.7 percent to 3.8 million cases and revenues were up an impressive 19.8 percent to $795 million.
The Council reports that much of this growth is fueled by the rise of high-end and super premium Irish Whiskeys, which grew an astounding 736 percent and 3456 percent, respectively, since 2002.
“Increased growth of premium Irish Whiskey reflects the upward trend of adult consumers’ interest in luxury spirits products,” said Distilled Spirits Council Senior Vice President Frank Coleman.
“Irish Whiskey’s smooth flavor profile makes it particularly appealing to adult consumers who are new to the whiskey category,” Coleman added.
Alongside approachability, Irish Whiskey is benefitting from thriving cocktail culture in cities across the country. The unique and versatile flavor of Irish Whiskey has been recognized by leading mixologists and has made its way into innovative and artisan cocktail menus.
Jack McGarry, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of The Dead Rabbit, which was recently awarded the World’s Best Bar, says they are thrilled to see the increasing popularity of Irish Whiskey in the United States.
McGarry stated, "As proud sons of Ireland, we have long championed our homeland's spirit at The Dead Rabbit, especially beginning with our second menu. Our very broad array of cocktails using Irish Whiskey showcase the fact that it is eminently mixable and versatile, from refreshing aperitifs to spirit-forward sippers for any time of year. Of course, Irish whiskey is a fine and approachable dram on its own."
