Description
2020 Release Shenks is a Kentucky Sour Mash Whiskey made with a substantial amount of rye. Following up the success of the 2019 Shenks release, where some Chinquapin (Quercus muehlenbergii) barrels were utilized during maturation, the 2020 release utilizes a greater percentage of whiskey aged in Chinquapin Oak in each batch. The wood has been naturally air dried and seasoned for at least 3 years. The longer seasoning combined with our specified toast and char allows the oak aromas and characters specific to Chinquapin oak to fully express themselves.
Tasting Notes:
- Color: Dark amber
- Nose: Notes of burnt orange peel set against rich creme brulee
- Palate: Luxurious mouthfeel with warm baking spices and hints of cardamom up front followed by honeyed oak with a touch of cherry
- Finish: Substantial and long lasting with some spices
