Distiller Notes
This 2022 release continues the Bomberger’s tradition of offering bold and beautiful 108 proof Kentucky Straight Bourbon with a rich and layered complexity due to a portion of the bourbon being aged in Chinquapin (Quercus muehlenbergii) oak. The Chinquapin oak utilized for aging was naturally air dried and seasoned for three years before being toasted and charred to exacting specifications.
Rich mahogany. Aromas of dark fruit accompanied by brown sugar. A tour de force whiskey that opens with delectable toffee notes transitioning into rich chocolate balanced bysweet berries and delicate notes of spice. Robust with complex depth.
Based in Louisville, Kentucky, Michter’s celebrates an extraordinarily rich heritage that traces back to 1753.
The Michter’s team spares no expense in its efforts to produce the greatest American whiskey possible. Tremendous attention is given to every step in the production process, including details like yeast selection; fermentation temperatures; distillation; wood selection and drying of staves; toasting and / or charring barrels; barreling proof; temperature and air flow conditions in the barrel rickhouse; identifying the peak maturation for bottling; and filtration protocol.

Paul Pacult, “Whisky of the Year” by The Whisky Exchange, “Best of the Best” by Robb Report, and “Distiller of the Year” by Wine Enthusiast, Michter’s has been recognized by whiskey connoisseurs as truly extraordinary.
