Bottling Notes

Unlike the 2019 release of Bomberger’s that yielded 3040 bottles this 2020 release is truly small batch only yielding 955 bottles world-wide. It’s a flavourful 108 proof Kentucky Straight Bourbon whiskey and a real celebration of American whiskey history. To age this release, Master of Maturation Andrea Wilson chose barrels made from special wood that has been naturally air dried for over 3 years. While some Chinquapin Oak barrels were utilised in the maturation of the 2019 release, for this 2020 expression, the distillery opted to increase the proportion of the bourbon that spent time in Chinquapin oak.

Chinquapin oak (Quercus muehlenbergii). Chinquapin is a type of white oak native to central and eastern North America, a species of oak that imparts strong character.

Australia received a very small allocation.
