Shenk's Homestead is a Kentucky sour mash whiskey from Michter's Distillery, released each year as a tribute to John Shenk. He was the Swiss farmer who founded one of America's oldest distilleries in 1753. The 2018 edition was matured in specially toasted French oak barrels. It was bottled at 45.6% in a 70cl bottle, from batch L18C260, in a run of 1810 bottles. The nose is warm spice, burnt sugar, subtle vanilla and light wood. The palate offers soft caramel, cloves, raisins, sweet malt and oak. The finish is long and slightly spicy, with a warm sweetness.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
