Shenk's Bourbon Homestead - (750ml)
Shenk's Homestead Sour Mash Whiskey honors the legacy of historic American whiskey figure John Shenk, who in 1753 founded a distillery that was to become know as Michter's in the 20th Century. It is made in Kentucky according to the traditional Sour Mash process whereby a portion of the preciously distilled whiskey mas (referred to as "setback") is added into the next batch. This full-bodied small batch whiskey is 91.2 proof.Ā
Similar to preious releases, this 202 SHenk's Homestead Sour Mash Whiskey is an expression made with a good amount of rye. To accentuate the rye characters, some of the fully matured whiskey was finished in toasted only French oak barrels that were not charred/ This wood was sourced from the Vosges region of France before being naturally air dried and seasoned for 24 months and being toasted to our exacting specifications/ With year's release using the toasted French oak, a bolder, lingering spice emerges balanced by some dried fruit and toasty burnt sugar and toffee qualities.Ā
