It's made in Kentucky according to the traditional Sour Mash process whereby a portion of the previously distilled mash (referred to as \"setback\") is added into the next batch. The age and exact composition of Shenk's is not disclosed, however it reportedly comes with a higher rye content than the Michter's brand 'Sour Mash'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the dominant grain is neither corn nor rye, Shenk's doesn't qualify as either a bourbon or a rye. It's also a vintage dated annual release which will vary from year to year. The 2020 edition was primarily matured in American oak, with a slightly higher proportion (compared to 2019) raised in 'Chinquapin' (Quercus muehlenbergii) - an oak native to central and eastern North America noted for having a strong flavour input. 45.6% Alc.\/Vol.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e955 bottles are on offer world wide\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mt-6 rounded-md bg-mom-lightGrey\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid gap-3 p-4\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eAll bottles listed for purchase are from personal collections.
