Shenk’s is a Kentucky Sour Mash Whiskey made with a substantial amount of rye. We’re happy to report that this year’s Shenk’s release will feature a higher percentage of whiskey aged in Chinquapin oak than in previous years, as well as longer aging times. The wood has been naturally air dried, seasoned for at least 3 years, and toasted and charred on the inside. These measures allow the oak’s unique aroma and flavor profiles to fully express themselves in each batch.
NOSE: Toasty with molasses and spice.
PALATE: A Whiskey to savor complimented by highlights of smooth spice, dried fruit, and honey.
FINISH: Smooth with delicate maturity.
