FAQs

Is Bomberger’s the same every year?
No—each release is small-batch and proof can vary, but the profile remains rich, oak-driven, and spice-forward.

Is it good for cocktails?
Yes—its higher proof stands up in spirit-forward classics, though many collectors prefer it neat or with a splash of water.

How does it compare to everyday bourbons?
Expect more intensity, longer finish, and greater complexity due to careful barrel selection and higher bottling proof.
