Whisky 'Old World Rye' 12 Years (700 ml. gift box) WhistlePig
12 Year Old World Rye by WhistlePig represents the cutting edge of WhistlePig finishing. This rye whiskey is the marriage of three finishes, each with their own distinctive flavor profiles. After maturing for 12 years in New American Oak, the distillate is divided into one of three barrels: Madeira (63%), Sauternes (30%) and Port (7%). Trimmed to perfection and blended in a symphony of flavours. Started as a great experiment, and ended up as the first rye whiskey of its kind, capable of giving rye all its glory. Just like a fine wine, Old World Rye's rich fruit and spice notes make for an epic meal.

THE DISTILLERY
Miles from civilization and distraction, The WhistlePig Farm is a rugged and fertile ground for whiskey exploration, surrounded by 500 acres of Rye and experimental crop fields, Vermont Oak trees, fresh well water, a maple sugar bush, and the scenic views of the Green Mountains. After meticulous renovation and care, we transformed a 150-year old dairy barn into the world's most unique whiskey-making distillery. We distill 7 days a week, working round the clock to bring you Whiskey as complex, rare, and uncommon as the place where it is daringly made. Our young, rebellious team is committed to breaking the rules, defying tradition, and blazing new trails with determination, laughter, and grit. We changed the Rye Whiskey game over a decade ago, and continue to set the standard every day.
