Bomberger’s Declaration PFG is the historic 2025 addition to Michter’s prestigious Legacy Series. Released in January 2025, this expression honors the 19th-century Pennsylvania distillery that would eventually become Michter’s. The "PFG" designation represents a significant technical evolution, focusing on the hyper-specific wood science of Precision Fine Grain French oak.

The Precision Fine Grain Standard

The PFG process utilizes proprietary French oak casks built from a blend of staves sourced from four legendary forests: Tronçais, Allier, Nevers, and Vosges.

  • Extended Seasoning: Staves are air-seasoned for 40 months before being toasted and charred to Michter’s exacting "Legacy" specifications.
  • Forest Blending: By combining oak from four distinct French forests, the distillery achieves a "fine-grain" profile that emphasizes cocoa and dark fruit over traditional wine-cask notes.
  • Low Entry Proof: Utilizing Michter’s signature 103-proof entry allows for maximum extraction of natural wood sugars during primary maturation.
Sensory Profile

Nose: Caramel, dark chocolate, and dried fruit. Secondary notes of sandalwood, toasted oak, cherry, and brown sugar develop with air.

Palate: Full-bodied and rich. Cherry, butter toffee, and chocolate lead the entry, followed by mid-palate notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, and seasoned oak.

Finish: Long and resonant. A sophisticated closing of toasted pecan and vanilla concludes with a lingering spiced oak warmth.

The Legacy Hierarchy

The PFG release joins Bomberger’s Declaration (Chinquapin Oak) and Shenk’s Homestead in the Legacy Series. It is the only expression in the Michter’s portfolio to utilize this four-forest French oak technique.

"A masterclass in French oak integration and bourbon maturation."

Collector Notes

As the inaugural entry for the PFG line, the 2025 release is a high-priority acquisition for Michter’s vertical collectors. Production volume for the Legacy Series is notably smaller than standard Michter’s limited releases, and as the third branch of the program, it carries significant long-term value. Every bottle offered is verified for pristine label condition and original seal integrity. This is a foundational bottle for those tracking the intersection of French cooperage and American whiskey.

Recommended Serving

This bourbon is best enjoyed neat at room temperature in a Glencairn glass. The Precision Fine Grain finish is sensitive to temperature; ice tends to compress the cocoa and dried fruit notes. A few drops of water will broaden the nose and allow the cherry and butter toffee to expand beautifully.
