Description
Shenk’s Homestead Distillery Sour Mash Whiskey honours 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. This 2024 release of Shenk’s Homestead Sour Mash Whiskey is an expression made with a substantial amount of rye. This offering uses rye whiskey that has aged in French oak sourced from the Vosges region of France before being naturally air-dried and seasoned for 24 months and being toasted to Shenk’s specifications. This release also includes whiskeys with unique grains in their recipes including malted rye and caramel malt which offer a nice creaminess to compliment the rye-forward herbaceous and spice qualities.
