The WhistlePig 15 Year Old Rye Whiskey is a distinguished American whiskey that stands in a league of its own. Marketed with the "Estate Oak" designation, this whiskey is aged in barrels made from Vermont Estate Oak, grown on a 200-hectare farm surrounding the WhistlePig distillery. This unique oak, featuring more rings than standard American white oak, contributes to a more intense flavor profile. The sustainably sourced wood is custom-charred, adding unique characteristics to the whiskey.
Aged for 15 years, this exceptional whiskey greets you with a bold and complex aroma of caramel, vanilla, oak, spices, and a hint of fruit. On the palate, it offers a warm, rich, and slightly creamy experience, with flavors of butterscotch, baking spices, leather, and tobacco. The finish is long, generous, and balanced, further showcasing the whiskey's sophisticated character.
