Bourbon in its purest form. Penelope Barrel Strength pushes the boundaries of our signature four grain balanced flavor profile. Each batch is blended from three bourbon mash bills aged in new American oak barrels and completely uncut and non chill-filtered. Each barrel was hand selected and blended into a single batch in order to create this unique offering.

Shenk's Homestead Distillery Sour Mash Whiskey honors the legacy of historic American Whiskey figure John Shenk, who in 1753 founded a distillery that was to become known as Michter's in the 20th century. It is made in Kentucky according to the traditional Sour Mash process, whereby a portion of the previously distilled whiskey mash (referred to as "setback") is added to the next batch. Shenk's is a Kentucky Sour Mash Whiskey that is made with a substantial amount of rye. The unique character results from being produced with malted rye in the recipe. Additionally, for its maturation, we utilized two different and quite special barrel profiles: a portion of it was aged in 18-month naturally air-dried and seasoned wood with our signature toast and char profile and a portion of it was aged in special toasted French oak barrels that were made from 24-month air-dried wood sourced from the Vosges region of France.
