Shenk’s is a Kentucky Sour Mash Whiskey made with a substantial amount of rye. The unique character of this 2023 release results from being produced with malted rye in the recipe. Additionally, for its maturation Michter’s uitilized two different and quite special barrel profiles; a portion of it was aged in 18 month naturally air-dried and seasoned wood, 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 in France.
