A Masterful Blend of Three Cask Finishes for a Sophisticated Rye Experience
WhistlePig 12 Year Old World Rye Whiskey combines American rye whiskey with Old World winemaking traditions. Aged for 12 years in New American Oak barrels and finished in a trio of carefully selected casks—Madeira (63%), Sauternes (30%), and Port (7%)—this 86-proof expression offers rich complexity and a symphony of flavors. Balancing fruit, spice, and subtle sweetness, it’s ideal for pairing with gourmet meals or savoring on its own.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Dried fruits, caramel, vanilla, and warm baking spices
Palate: Layers of stone fruits, honey, and fig, balanced by cinnamon, clove, and oak
Finish: Smooth and lingering, with notes of dark berries, toffee, and a hint of port wine
What Makes It Special
Triple Cask Finish: A unique blend of Madeira, Sauternes, and Port barrel finishes delivers a complex, wine-like profile.
12-Year Maturation: Aged to perfection in New American Oak before cask finishing, creating depth and structure.
Old World Influence: Inspired by European winemaking traditions, offering a rich, fruity, and spice-forward character.
Versatile Pairing: Ideal for sipping neat, but also pairs exceptionally well with fine dining, from roasted meats to decadent desserts.
