Straight Rye Whiskey
Distillery Bottling 75cl / 43% / 86 Proof
Known as "The Marriage" and "Old World", the WhistlePig 12-year-old is Inspired by Old World barrel ageing techniques.
What WhistlePig have done here is take bonds of 12-year-old rye, marry them together and finish them in Port (7%), Sauternes (30%), and Madeira (63%) casks resulting in a Scotch like elegance but still unmistakably rye.
