Bomberger's Declaration Small Batch (2025 Release; Batch 25F1995), 54%

This annual release honors the legacy of Bomberger’s Distillery, the 19th-century Pennsylvania forerunner to today’s Michter’s. Generous aromas of vanilla bean and melted marshmallow lead to a soft, luscious palate of red berries, vanilla cream, espresso, and maple syrup, plus black pepper spice. The beautiful, flavorful finish has bitter chocolate and cinnamon, with a melding of fruit, chocolate, coffee, and lingering herbs all combining to create a delightful ending.
