Based in Lousiville, Kentucky, Michter’s is a distillery with ties to America’s first distillery. In 1753, it was a Swiss Mennonite farmer named John Shenk who founded Shenk’s distillery — which was eventually renamed into Michter’s distillery in the 20th century. Shenk Homestead bottlings honor the guy who started it all.

Released in 2021, Shenk's Homestead Bourbon Sour Mash follows two previous, super successful editions that instantly sold out. Like its predecessors, some of the Whisky was aged in Chinquapin oak barrels. The wood is air dried naturally, seasoned for over 3 years, and charred at various levels. Nothing is left to coincidence and the result is an elegant and balanced Whisky.

Bourbon must be made from a grain mixture that is at least 51% corn.
It is believed that during the famous Winter encampment at Valley Forge, George Washington himself rode to the nearby distillery and acquired a few barrels of Rye to keep his soldiers warm.
When you see Rye Whiskey newcomers calling their spirit a “classic Rye,” you can bet they are comparing themselves to Michter’s Rye Whiskey, because Michter’s was literally the first.
Bourbon was declared "The Official Spirit of America" by an Act of Congress signed by President Lyndon Johnson in 1964.
Bourbons are very high in vanilla, as American White Oak is naturally high in vanillins.
Bourbon Is a ''new barrel Spirit'': One of the legal requirements for Bourbon is that it only be aged in brand new oak charred barrels.
