Hailing from the esteemed WhistlePig distillery in the United States, this American whiskey is crafted predominantly from rye, marking it as a notable representative of traditional American whiskey.

The finish is long-lasting and nuanced, leaving behind impressions of dark chocolate, dried fruit, and a soft sweetness of vanilla and caramel.
This 86-proof whiskey, presented in a 700ml bottle at 43% ABV, is created through a "Triple Barrel" process that involves aging in new American oak barrels before being divided into three distinct paths: 63% in Madeira barrels, 30% in Sauternes barrels, and 7% in Port barrels. These components are expertly blended to produce a symphony of flavors that captivate the senses.
WhistlePig Whiskey is a multiple award-winning brand, known for its dedication to quality and innovation. This 12-year-old expression is the result of a collaboration between American and Canadian producers.

The first release of their 10-year-old rye whiskey, finished in ex-bourbon and virgin oak casks, received a record 96-point score from Wine Enthusiast.
The WhistlePig 12 Year Old Rye Whiskey is unique due to its "Triple Barrel" aging process, where it is aged in a combination of Madeira, Sauternes, and Port casks, giving it a complex and distinctive flavor profile.
