Bomberger’s Declaration 2025 Release

A 2025 release from famed American whiskey brand Michter’s, Bomberger’s Declaration Bourbon honours the legacy of the former distillery known as Bomberger’s in the 1800’s and later as Michter’s in the 20th Century.

The liquid was matured in Chinquapin (Quercus muehlenbergii) oak barrels, which were air-dried and seasoned for different periods, including 18 months, 3 years, 4 years and 5 years, before undergoing a highly specialised toasting and charring process.

Bottled at 54% abv, you can expect a nose of bright fruit, roasted nuts and salted caramel, followed by a palate of floral, jammy, sweet and salty flavours. The finish is lingering, with spicy notes accenting characters of chocolate and berries.
