Bomberger’s Declaration Bourbon 2023 is the sixth release from Michter’s. Produced in small batches of no more than 24 barrels, it combines bourbon aged in Chinquapin Oak barrels with a mashbill featuring malted rye, marking the first time Michter’s has used malted rye. The mashbill consists of 79% corn, 11% rye and 10% malted barley. Bomberger’s is released in multiple batches annually, with each batch totaling just between 2,000 and 2,600 bottles.
So for those of you who are like me, take a pause and enjoy the fact we can have a whiskey of this caliber while not having to pay an arm and a leg. Bomberger’s truly is one of the best values in bourbon out there.
Kudos to the Michter's team on this one. This is everything that a whiskey lover looks for in a bourbon. It doesn't do things over the top in order to get a wow out of people; this release delivers an exceptionally refined blend of what I can assume are some of Kentucky's finest well-aged stocks.
