The Boss Hog Edition is the first American Whiskey finished using Japanese Umeshu, the result of a true collaboration between WhistlePig and Kitaya brewery on Japan’s Kyushu island. This well aged Straight Rye Whiskey was created using koji fermentation. Each bottle is adorned with The Samurai Scientist – Jōkichi Takamine – who pioneered koji fermentation in the American whisky industry over a century ago. Intensely aromatic, with cinnamon, maple, and toasted marshmallow that develops with time in the glass. Tobacco, ginger, baking spices, and savory umami creating a remarkably rich, nuanced and elegant profile lending to soft, sweet notes that further color the mosaic of flavor.

Whistlepig the boss hog edition 6 the samurai scientist
"Would have been 5 stars but the black case that holds the marvelous bottle of golden perfection was sun faded to a dull brown on the top and one side. Other than that everything was terrific. Good price well packaged and the bourbon concierge even refunded half of my shipping fees as he determined they were too high. Who does that? Thankyou guys."

"I'm not one that can pick out all the flavors of whiskey (yet). However this Rye Whiskey explodes with different flavors as you swish it around your mouth. It's smooth and has a long and delicious aftertaste."
