Released in 2015, the WhistlePig Small Batch Rye 10 Years Old was born from that treasure found by chance: aged in virgin American oak barrels, it is the first label produced by the distillery. A rye whiskey with a strong, spicy character that wins over category juries and enthuses enthusiasts.
Dave Pickerell's contribution to WhistlePig's success is not limited to finding the treasure, but sees him actively involved both as Master Distiller and in the creation of the distillery's copper stills. It is also thanks to him, therefore, that the second release arrives: WhistlePig 12 Years Old World Rye: the first blend matured in American oak casks, with ageing in 3 different types of casks: Port (7%), French Sauternes (30%) and Madeira (63%). A unique product, which won a double gold medal at the 2015 San Francisco World Spirit Competition.
.
Following the death of Dave Pickerell in 2018, a painful event for the entire distilling world, WhistlePig decided to remain faithful to his teachings, thus paying homage to the past without being afraid to experiment while looking to the future.
From this inspiration comes WhistlePig 15 Years Old Estate Oak Rye, the distillery's first product left to age for over 10 years in Vermont Estate Oak casks: a trippy blend of spice, sugar, oak and citrus scents.
They are the first to be produced in the world of distilling.
