METZE

Although the MGP Distillery in Lawrenceburg, Indiana is relatively unknown compared to other large distilleries, those in whiskey circles recognize MGP as Americas chief supplier of white label product for other brands, both large and small. In fact, several of the most celebrated brands of recent years including Angels Envy, Bulleit, High West and Smooth Ambler contain whiskey originally distilled at MGP.I have always been a humble person by nature, says Greg Metze, the master distiller at MGP Distillery and an employee of the Lawrenceburg, Indiana facility since 1978. I achieve self-satisfaction and gratification working alongside our operators, and by knowing we produce first-rate products.Designed to showcase the very best of what Metze and MGP Distillery can produce, Metzes Select Indiana Straight Bourbon Whiskey 2015 Medley is crafted from a blend of three high-rye bourbons distilled at MGP (38 percent bourbon distilled in 2006 with a 21 percent rye content, 3 percent bourbon distilled in 2006 with a 36 percent rye content, and 59 percent bourbon distilled in 2008 with a 21 percent rye content).As a result, Metzes has a nose packed with both sweet and spicy notes, particularly caramel, vanilla, cinnamon and hazelnut. The palate is creamy and smooth, with notes of apple pie and breakfast cereal transitioning to a finish accented by amaretto and crumb cake.Bottled at 93 proof and limited to just 6,000 bottles worldwide, this whiskey is sure to go fast pick up a bottle (or two) today!
