  • This is a very good whiskey (high B+ all day!). The only knock is that water (or ice) helps this one really pop compared to the neat pour.

  • The Bourbon Culture
  • By Mike & Mike
  • This year’s Shenk’s is going to be a treat for you. But if you’re like me and find malted rye whiskies to be just a little bit off, then skip this release and wait 12 more months to see if Michter’s decides to make a change.

  • By Nick Beiter
  • A whiskey with a smooth, creamy mouthfeel that nails its funky weirdness and its long, sweet finish.
