Bomberger’s PFG (Precision Fine Grain) Kentucky Straight Bourbon is a testament to Michter’s dedication to precision in whiskey-making. This 2025 release undergoes a dual-barrel aging process, starting in new toasted and charred American oak barrels, followed by finishing in custom French fine-grain oak barrels crafted from staves air-dried for over 40 months near the Charente River in France. This meticulous process imparts a rich complexity to the bourbon, resulting in a harmonious blend of flavors.
