I was traveling from Wisconsin to North Carolina last fall. I had to gas up in a crappy town in Indiana. The gas station had a busted ass booze store in it. I was checking the bourbon out and saw it was ghetto AF. So i went to the counter to prepay my gas, and i couldn't believe what i saw on the back counter. They had four bottles of each , Shenks and Bombergers. I was happy as a pig in mud. I bought 2 bottles of each. That gas station was my best find on bourbon to date. What a pleasant surprise. Cheers Man.
I saw both of these today for $150 each. I debated forever, but I just couldn’t do it. At $300 for both, it would be $70 over SRP. I’ll probably regret it, but I’m tired of overpaying. Now, I have to say, those are the best prices I’ve seen and they were sitting on the shelf on a Tuesday afternoon. Read into that as you will, but prices have gone down and availability is up imo. I’m not sure why it was all or nothing in my mind. Lol
I was taking a tour at the distillery in Louisville, and lo and behold they were selling both that morning! Picked up the Shanks have not opened it but looking forward to tasting this weekend.
2023 shenks is probably the best whiskey I had. Ever. But the flavours I got there were diffrent than u got here in 2024. it was complex and I got caramellpopcorn , oak, cigar, candy, pepper 😆
I really enjoy michters products. I finally got my first bombergers last year and love it! I had yet to have shenks though. The more I think about it I don't know if I have had one I do not like from Michters
I don't think those are available in MI. Never tried them or seen them available on my travels. I also didn't know you had a patron like that. Great video!
Great video judge. Ive got an opportunity to trade for both bottles for 1 Rock Hill Farms plus a little cash. Would you recommend doing it. I wont find either bottle at local stores.

Awesome story ty for sharing!
My buddy just snagged me the Bombergers for $105 after tax here in Wisconsin. I loved last years release! Can’t wait to compare it to this one.
Where in Wisco did you find it at Sir?
@@petmycat2720east side of the state, near Green Bay area I believe
@@TravisG88 Sweet im in Fond Du Lac Wisco. thats just north of me.
Congrats Travis
Grabbed both of them yesterday for about 10 over MSRP not disappointed.

Was very happy to pick up a Bombergers for $125. Nice to find some Michter's juice at a higher proof point.
My friend how you been? Cheers🥃
Picked up both today in lottery. Shenks is insane. Bombergers is great as well.
Grabbed a bottle of Shenks yesterday can’t wait to crack it open
Good stuff 🥃👏🏾
These two always get a great review!
On point Judge! Both bottles are phenomenal. Tough to pick…get em both! Salute 🥃
👏🏾🥃
Can't wait for my bottles to be delivered
Nice score Judge getting those bottles and your review makes me wish I could ever find them around me.
Thanks 👍
Drinking 24 Shenk’s while watching this. 24 Bomberger’s is coming tomorrow. Cheers! 🥃
Enjoy
Great review sir
Gracias
Have both for 2023 but not the 2024. The 23’s are great and looking forward to trying the 24’s and seeing the differences.
Both are soo good!
I like this guy. He has a great palate ans knowledge.

Depends on the cash..$ dont fork over to much
@@BourbonJudge $50
RHF is good but not worth two bottles and bucks on top.
@@sktbrd13gy1 I'd be trading the RHF plus $50.
Good video but you said a lot without actually telling us your tasting notes.
