Tasting notes
This 15-year-old rye whiskey marks a milestone in the art of long-term aging. Born in the vast landscapes of Vermont, this spirit is aged in oak barrels picked directly from the WhistlePig estate, a choice that gives this whiskey a rich tannin and rare depth. Full-bodied but not overpowering, oaky yet nuanced, it blends notes of spice, burnt caramel, and dried fruit with a certain elegance. For discerning rye lovers looking to discover the distillery's most mature expression. Bright spices (black pepper, cinnamon), noble wood, melted caramel, and orange peel. Rich and muscular, with woody tannins, toasted nuts, and notes of brown sugar and leather. Long, dry, marked by oak and lingering spices.
