Description

WhistlePig PiggyBack Rye Whiskey

In 2006, a band of dedicated Rye enthusiasts purchased a 500-acre dairy farm in the rolling hills of Vermont’s Champlain Valley. Just until recently, until his passing the WhistlePig farm had been home to Master Distiller Dave Pickerell.After he graduated from West Point with a Bachelor’s degree in Chemistry, Pickerell served in the military for eleven years as a cavalry officer. Later he received a Master’s degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Louisville, before serving as chairman of the Kentucky Distillers Association and master distiller at Maker’s Mark in Loretto, Kentucky for 13 years. “This is what I was meant for,” said Pickerell of the whiskey business.

After leaving Maker’s Mark, Pickerell embarked on a journey to find the perfect rye whiskey. “Rye, in its own essence, is just a brilliant grain… I wanted to do rye because it’s America’s historical whiskey.” During the Revolutionary War, English blockades of American ports prevented the colonists from purchasing molasses used to make rum. As a result, American distillers, including George Washington, started making rye whiskey.

This stunning 100% rye is one of the final expressions created by late Master Distiller and whiskey luminary Dave Pickerell. His dream was to create the best aged Rye Whiskey perfect for any rye cocktail. PiggyBack has an intensely powerful, spicy profile, imparted by its time in oak barrels. You can expect complex and smooth notes that shine through, yet don’t overpower your drink. An outstanding in any concoction. Aged 6 years and bottled at 96.56 proof (’56 is the year Dave Pickerell was born).

WhistlePig Estate Oak Rye Aged 15 Years

One of our oldest whiskeys ever bottled is also the first WhistlePig product finished in Vermont Estate Oak. Harvested right off our farm the wood has more rings than the standard American oak used in whiskey barrels. That gives it more opportunity to impart deeper flavors during maturation. Hitting the bottle at 92-proof, the liquid is assertive and wise beyond its 15 year age statement. And it boasts a score of 97 points from Wine Enthusiast. So we’re clearly not the only ones enamored by this pure expression of Green Mountain goodness. Oak Rye Aged 15 Years Nose – Deep and rich, dominated by caramel, vanilla, and oak with hints of allspice and burnt orange Tasting Notes – Warm, rich, and slightly creamy. Loads of butterscotch and baking spice with leather and a hint of tobacco Finish – Ultra long and rich, warm, and inviting
