Long finish, beautifully balanced at one of the higher proof releases I've had recently.

• T8ke's Tasting Notes: The quintessential rye king, these Piggyback barrels that are Vermont distilled are awesome crosses of quality and value - tons of big, bold, woody maple, herbal rye spice, toffee and black pepper that screams rye. At 6 years old and barrel strength, there's a rich palate, plenty of oak but without covering up sweet maple, peppy rye spice and an herbal note. Long finish, jammin' and lovely.

• T8ke's Tasting Notes: A yin to yang of the rye, this barrel of Piggyback bourbon is also Vermont distilled and it's lovely - big, rich, oaky, bold bourbon. Heavy caramel and baking spice, cinnamon and red hots, caramel candies and big oak. The palate is rich, some fruits mingle - berries, cherry and blackberry settle with more pepper and oak. The finish is long, full of vanilla, creamy corn, honey and a hint of tobacco.

As part of the wheated bourbon family, this twelve year old W.L. Weller is aged far longer than most wheated bourbons. This offering is a smooth, easy-going and balanced bourbon with a beautiful deep bronze color.

The BigShəBàng isn’t just the oldest and rarest whiskey we’ve ever released—it’s a Single Malt supernova... A sensory event thirty years in the making, erupting in  a cataclysmic flash of flavor, depth, and cosmic  complexity.

After aging for three decades in American Oak barrels, this Super Aged Single Barrel whiskey finishes its epoch in Vin Santo barrels — Italian for 'holy wine'.  Revered for their rich, velvety character, these elusive, artisanal casks yield a sip that redefines reality, with notes of honeyed bread, toasted cedar, honeysuckle, and wheat crust. A finish so deep, it feels infinite.

It's the spark that sets a new universe of whiskey in motion.

WhistlePig has become the blockbuster franchise of whiskey. Every release generates the kind of anticipation usually reserved for summer Marvel releases. 

Their Boss Hog series, now in its twelfth year (and having picked up some major hardware over the years: Best in Show at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, Best of the Best by Robb Report multiple times, and Best Rye Whiskey at various competitions), remains the most collectible limited edition series in American whiskey, a simply stunning accomplishment, given how many distilleries are desperately trying to create their own cult followings.

Now comes Boss Hog XII: Feather & Flame: a single barrel, cask strength rye that takes a hard left turn into ancient Mexico tradition.

Matured in Pulque Curado de Cacao barrels, which have been seasoned with agave-fermented pulque and cured with cacao and Mexican chili peppers, it somehow manages to summon the complex essence of Xocolatl, the sacred chili chocolate drink that neither the Aztecs nor we, it seems, are able to get enough of.

It's the world's first Pulque Curado barrel finish for rye whiskey, because, apparently, regular barrel finishes have become too pedestrian for WhistlePig's ambitions. It also happens to be among WhistlePig's oldest rye whiskeys, not to mention among its most potent (with a powerful proof that clocks in between 104.8-108.4).

From the first nosing, you get caramel, dark chocolate, and orange zest that hints at the wild ride ahead. The palate delivers notes of bright citrus balanced by soft oak and cocoa with wave upon wave of subtle earthy spice, while the finish brings a dramatic one-two burst of savory cacao that gives way, marvelously, to herbaceous chili pepper.

A whisky that defies nearly every expectation … as it dazzles your mind and your palate, both. 

And by the way, the packing is every bit the equal of the liquid within. Each bottle is crowned with an equally collectible Vermont handmade pewter topper depicting a feathered pig deity, wielding Aztec chilis and a traditional chocolate whisk. 

These collectible pewter toppers are designed and cast by hand just 11 miles from the WhistlePig Farm, while each back label features NFC technology for collector registration and authentication.

This is a must-have for rye lovers, for WhistlePig fans — really, for anyone who loves great American craft.
