Original Bourbon Whiskey 750ml
Shenk’s Homestead Distillery Sour Mash Whiskey honors the legacy of historic American whiskey figure John Shenk, who in 1753 founded a distillery that was to become known as Michter’s in the 20th Century. It is made in Kentucky according to the traditional Sour Mash process whereby a portion of the previously distilled whiskey mash (referred to as “setback”) is added into the next batch. This full-bodied small batch whiskey is 91.2 proof. Shenk’s is a Kentucky Sour Mash Whiskey made with a good deal of rye. Unlike the 2018 Shenk’s release, where some French Oak was utilized during maturation, the 2019 was matured entirely in American oak barrels, some of them being the special species of oak called Chinquapin ( Quercus muehlenbergi ).

About the brand
Shenk's Homestead is a line of branded whiskey introduced by the Michter's Distillery of Lousiville KY in honor of the legacy and historical relevance of the brand itself along with memorializing American whiskey legend John Shenk and Michter's Schaefferstown PA Distillery. Shenk's Homestead Sour Mash is derived from portions of previously distilled whiskey mash, otherwise known as setback, added to the next batch and blended for a unique and highly distinct taste experience. Going beyond Michter's primary flavor profiles, Shenk's Homestead offers Michter's current Master of Maturation, Andrea Wilson, and Master Distiller Dan McKee the ability to explore commanding innovations and techniques to produce a whiskey truly worthy of Michter fans and collectors alike. The 2022 Shenk's Homestead Distillery Sour Mash Whiskey exemplifies this opportunity for exploration by blending a portion of distillate aged in special toasted French oak barrels made from 24-month air-dried wood imported from the Vosges region of France. Shenk's Homestead is legacy bourbon at its finest; rich, memorable, and masterfully crafted to the highest of Michter's revered standards.
