Kentucky, American Whiskey, 45.6%, 750ml

Shenk’s is a Kentucky Sour Mash Whiskey made with a substantial amount of rye. The unique character of this 2023 offering results from it being produced with malted rye in the recipe. Additionally, for its maturation they utilised two different and quite special barrel profiles: a portion of it was aged in 18-month naturally air-dried and seasoned wood with their signature toast and char profile and a portion of it was aged in special toasted French oak barrels that were made from 24-month air-dried wood sourced from the Vosges region of France. This full-bodied, small batch whiskey is 91.2 proof.
