Shenk's Homestead (2021 Release)
It's the 2021 edition of Shenk's Homestead American whiskey, produced by Michter's in homage to John Shenk, who founded a distillery all the way back in 1753, which would eventually become... The Michter's Distillery! So, for the 2021 release, the team continue to use a portion of Chinquapin oak casks (as it has done for the 2020 and 2019 edition, proving popular indeed), which have been charred at various levels to achieve a marvellous flavour profile. The whiskey itself is a sour mash whiskey, with a good helping of rye up in the mix.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Roasted almonds, nutmeg, cinnamon, vanilla pod earthiness, orange zest.
Palate
Runny caramel dotted with spicy hints of cedar and black pepper, plus a festive touch of clove and more citrus.
Finish
Warming spices go on and on.
