Only 315 bottles of the 2025 Edition will be made available worldwide. Bottled at 115.2 proof (57.6% ABV), Michter's Celebration has a suggested retail price of $6,000 per bottle in the United States. Only seven barrels were chosen from Michter's aging stocks for the 2025 Edition of Celebration: four Kentucky Straight Rye barrels and three Kentucky Straight Bourbon barrels.
"Each release of Michter's Celebration is truly unique and cannot be replicated. This extraordinary whiskey is a symphony decades in the making, orchestrated by Master of Maturation Andrea Wilson and Master Distiller Dan McKee," said Michter's President Joseph J. Magliocco. "Together, they carefully oversee the aging and blending process, selecting these seven whiskeys not only for the extraordinary individual characteristics each brings, but with the understanding that together, they will create a whiskey so exquisite that the sum is even greater than its individual parts. It reflects patience, precision, and profound expertise composed into a single, unforgettable experience."
Reflecting on the artistry behind the release, Michter's Master of Maturation Andrea Wilson observed, "To be part of creating Celebration is a tremendous honor. It is about respecting the art of maturing whiskey to its perfect moment, not a specific age; blending whiskeys to a profile that surpasses the beauty of any one barrel alone; and seeking something so unique it conveys a poetic elegance. The result is a composition of enchanting complexity, bold sophistication, and depth that echoes the timeless treasures of American whiskey."
Each bottle of the 2025 Celebration Sour Mash Whiskey is presented in a special gift box containing a letter signed by Michter's Master Distiller Dan McKee. "This is the third edition of Michter's Celebration in my time as Master Distiller, and each release is one of a kind. I'm so proud to have personally selected the barrels for this release," said McKee. "The 2025 Celebration contains whiskey from seven extraordinary barrels, with the youngest whiskey being over 12 years old and the oldest whiskey being over 30 years old. It's remarkable how the oldest barrels contribute just the right amount of oak influence while leaving room for the delicate nuances of the other beautiful ryes and bourbons in the blend to shine."
Introduced in 2013, Michter's Celebration Sour Mash marked a significant moment in American whiskey history: an American whiskey company was offering a blend of this caliber at a suggested retail price in the several-thousand-dollar range, establishing a new echelon of American whiskey.
In October 2025, Michter's became the first whiskey to be named in three consecutive years The World's Most Admired Whiskey by an international academy of voters convened by UK-based Drinks International. Michter's has a rich and long legacy of offering traditional American whiskeys of uncompromising quality. With each of its limited production offerings aged to its peak maturity, Michter's highly acclaimed portfolio includes bourbon, rye, sour mash whiskey, and American whiskey.

Michter's To Release Celebration Sour Mash, The Rarest Whiskey in the Distiller's Lineup
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Feb. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Sports Nutrition Academy (SNAc) Malaysia is proud to announce a new partnership with fencer Saif Nordin, one of Malaysia's emerging young athletes and a News Hub Asia (NHA) athlete. The collaboration reflects SNAc's commitment to supporting high-performance athletes with evidence-based sports nutrition that enhances performance, recovery, and long-term health.
As Malaysian athletes face increasingly demanding competition schedules, nutrition has emerged as a critical and often underestimated performance factor. Regional sports science data shows that inadequate fuelling is one of the leading contributors to fatigue, injury risk, and inconsistent performance among competitive athletes, particularly those juggling travel, training, and academic or work commitments. This highlights the growing need for structured, personalised nutrition strategies rather than ad-hoc eating habits.
SNAc aims to address this gap by translating nutrition science into practical, real-world solutions for athletes. Through education, assessment, and ongoing guidance, SNAc supports athletes in fuelling appropriately for training loads, competition demands, and recovery, helping them perform consistently across long seasons and international calendars.
Saif Nordin represents the next generation of Malaysian athletes navigating the complexities of elite sport. Fencing is a discipline that demands explosive power, speed, tactical precision, and sharp mental focus, all of which are heavily influenced by nutrition timing, energy availability, and recovery strategies.
"We are excited to support Saif as part of the SNAc athlete community," said Tania Lee Xu Yar, dietitian and co-founder of SNAc Malaysia. "High-performance nutrition is not about restriction or rigid meal plans. It's about understanding what the body needs at different phases of training and competition, and fuelling in a way that supports performance, recovery, and health. Saif's sport requires both physical sharpness and mental clarity, and nutrition plays a key role in both."
Tania who has worked with athletes who have competed in the Olympics added, "What many people don't realise is that the same principles we apply with elite athletes are equally relevant for young competitors, developing athletes, and active individuals. When nutrition is planned properly, athletes train better, recover faster, and reduce the risk of injuries or burnout over a long season."
For Saif, the partnership marks an important step in his athletic development as he competes across multiple international tournaments each year.
"I'm excited by this collaboration. I love food, as many of my teammates know," said Saif. "I now need to use that love of food in a more strategic way. With all the international tournaments on the fencing calendar, getting the food equation right in different countries is not easy. Having proper guidance helps me make better decisions so I can focus on fencing and perform at my best."
The tie-up was officially marked with a logo presentation and photo session featuring Saif and representatives from SNAc Malaysia, celebrating a shared commitment to performance, education, and athlete well-being.
This collaboration reinforces SNAc Malaysia's role as a resource hub for athletes, coaches, sports scientists, and sports enthusiasts seeking to enhance performance through nutrition. Co-founded by experienced sports nutritionists and dietitians who have worked with elite national athletes at the National Sports Institute (ISN), SNAc specialises in applying evidence-based nutrition strategies to support training, competition, and recovery while optimising long-term health.
Through partnerships such as this, SNAc Malaysia aims to elevate the standard of sports nutrition awareness in Malaysia, empowering athletes from the grassroots level to fuel smarter, perform better, and build a successful generation of elite athletes.

About Saif Nordin
Saif Nordin is part of Malaysia's new wave of young sporting talent, a fencer with sharp instincts, clean technique, and discipline. Having represented Malaysia and Selangor across multiple competitive competitions, including the Cadet and Junior World Championships, he is steadily carving out his place in the national fencing landscape.
More than just an athlete, Saif is thoughtful about the science behind performance. He believes nutrition, recovery, and smart training are just as important as time spent on the piste. It's this balanced, modern approach to sport that makes him a standout voice among Malaysia's next generation of competitors.
In October 2024, Saif joined forces with regional news portal, News Hub Asia (NHA), through a media partnership. The Saif x NHA partnership is part of a larger effort by NHA to support young Asian athletes with a focus on bridging gaps between talent and opportunities in sports.
