Our second WhistlePig Barrel pick is finally here! ​
​
Whistlepig is the world's most awarded rye whiskey, and for good reason! The late, great Founder, Dave Pickerell and the rest of the team in Vermont have been experimenting and pushing boundaries in the rye whiskey space since 2008. Back in 2021 we were extremely fortunate to get our hands on a very special group of barrels, and selected what became known as "The Head Honcho"! Those bottles sold out instantly, and have even started showing up on whiskey auction sites..... if you find one, buy it! Our latest WhistlePig is a single barrel, 100% rye which at 6 years old punches well above its age! The toffee apple greeting on the nose is your first sign this isn't your standard rye!
