Description
Shenk’s Homestead Sour Mash Whiskey 2025 Release is a full-bodied, small-batch Kentucky whiskey that pays tribute to John Shenk, who founded the original distillery in 1753 — a site that would later become known as Michter’s. Crafted using the traditional sour mash method, where a portion of a previous batch is added to the next, this whiskey embraces heritage while showcasing modern refinement. The 2025 edition features a generous rye component, with select portions of the matured spirit finished in toasted-only French oak barrels sourced from the Vosges region. These barrels, air-dried and seasoned for 24 months before toasting, contribute a distinctive depth and complexity to the final blend.
The whiskey presents a dark amber hue and opens with aromas of toasty burnt sugar, warm spice, and honey. On the palate, it delivers a rich and layered experience, highlighting notes of baking spice, dried fruits, nougat, and toffee, all wrapped in a sweet, toasted character. The finish is smooth and lingering, with a bold spice that resonates long after the last sip. This release stands as a testament to American whiskey craftsmanship, offering a nuanced and satisfying dram for those who appreciate tradition with a contemporary edge.
