Profile: What Makes WhistlePig 12 Year Old Rye Special

Founded in 2007 with master distiller Dave Pickerell, WhistlePig succeeded in combining legendary whiskey tradition with groundbreaking innovation. Countless awards followed, cementing its reputation as the world's most awarded rye whiskey. Rightly so – the exceptionally high rye content of nearly 100 percent, a long maturation period and continual innovation in cask management are guarantors of these extraordinary top-class rye whiskeys. WhistlePig 12 Year Old is the result of three finishes, each with its own distinctive profile: the first American whiskey of its kind to mature for over a decade in new American white oak casks. This was followed by finishing and blending using 63% ex-Madeira, 30% ex-Sauternes and 7% ex-port casks.
