When bourbon craftsmanship reaches its pinnacle, you get something like Michter's Bomberger's Declaration PFG. The Scotchy Bourbon Boys dive deep into this extraordinary limited release, discovering what makes it worth seeking out.
Bomberger's rich history dates back to the 1800s, when the original distillery operated in Pennsylvania before later becoming known as Michter's. Today's expression pays homage to this legacy while introducing innovation through their Precision Fine Grain finishing process. These special barrels, constructed from fine-grained oak seasoned outdoors for over 40 months, undergo careful toasting and charring to create a bourbon of exceptional depth and character.
Pouring a gorgeous dark amber, this 100.2 proof bourbon immediately captivates with aromas of burnt brown sugar, dark cherries, and tiramisu. The complexity continues to unfold with each sip, revealing layers of vanilla custard, chocolate, cinnamon, and dark fruits that dance across the palate. While the finish leans toward leathery oak, the overall experience is nothing short of spectacular, earning an impressive 16.5/18 on our barrel bottle breakdown scale.
At $149, Bomberger's PFG represents a premium bourbon investment that delivers a truly memorable experience. Our verdict? Absolutely worth it. The craftsmanship behind this expression showcases why Michter's continues to be one of the most respected names in American whiskey, creating bottles that belong in every serious bourbon enthusiast's collection.
