The Whiskey Wash called the 2024 Shenk's Homestead the best American whiskey and gave it 10 out of 10 — a rye-heavy Kentucky sour mash with three ryes in the mash, matured in twenty-four-month air-dried oak from the Vosges forest of France, at 91.2 proof. Shenk's honors John Shenk, the Swiss Mennonite farmer who started distilling in Pennsylvania in 1753 — the origin of what became Bomberger's and then Michter's; the modern Louisville Michter's launched the Legacy Series in 2018, one release a year, each a different wood experiment on a sour mash that's neither bourbon nor rye by grain bill. The 2024 uses a mashbill with three types of rye and French oak seasoned two years in the open air, bottled at 91.2 proof. The Whiskey Wash: orange, clove, oak, and earthy mushroom on the nose; a delicate balance of sweet and savory — apricot, mushroom, oak, green apple, baking spice, warm bread, and maple — so well balanced you might not notice you've swallowed. Bourbon Culture's quick review agreed it's the best of the series. Honest note: a perfect score from a major reviewer on an allocated $110 bottle is the kind of thing that empties shelves — the 2024 is the Shenk's to own, for the collector and the drinker who wants Michter's at its strangest and best. Neat, in a Glencairn. Shenk's, 2024.Buy Shenk's Homestead Kentucky Sour Mash Whiskey 2024 Release online with fast shipping right to your door.
