Shenk’s & Bomberger’s Bourbon 2025 Release – Reserve Yours at blackbook

Aug 2, 2025

Two of the most anticipated annual releases in the bourbon world are back—Shenk’s Homestead and Bomberger’s Declaration Bourbon. Known for their rich heritage, complex flavor profiles, and limited allocations, these Michter’s legacy labels are set to drop their 2025 editions in the coming months—and you’ll be able to buy them right here at blackbook.

🥃 What Makes Shenk’s and Bomberger’s So Special?

Both labels are named after iconic American whiskey pioneers—John Shenk, who founded a distillery in 1753 that would later become Michter’s, and Abraham Bomberger, who owned that same distillery in the 1800s.

These annual releases pay tribute to that legacy with unique, high-quality bourbon that differs slightly every year based on special barrel finishes, mash bills, and proof levels. In short: collectors and connoisseurs chase these bottles for a reason.

🔍 What to Expect from the 2025 Editions

While official tasting notes are under wraps until release, here’s what we anticipate based on recent years:

Shenk’s 2025 Release

  • Typically features a rye-forward mash bill

  • Aged in toasted and/or French oak barrels

  • Notes of warm spice, citrus peel, and rich oak

  • Bottled at 91.2 proof (subject to change)

  • Balanced, elegant, and full of character

Bomberger’s 2025 Release

  • Often uses a higher proof and more robust profile

  • Deep notes of caramel, molasses, and charred oak

  • Aged in special barrels (often Chinquapin oak or custom-toasted)

  • Bottled at 108–110 proof range (expected for 2025)

  • Bolder and darker than Shenk’s, perfect for big bourbon fans
