Description
This featured release is the 2016 WhistlePig Farm The Boss Hog 3rd Edition Straight Rye Whiskey – aka The Independent! A highly coveted iteration for collectors and enthusiasts, it includes WhistlePig’s customary hand-chiseled pewter ornamental stopper depicting a “war pig” and cannon as a tribute to Raj Bhakta and the brand’s legal struggles at the time of its release. Aged for a minimum of 14 years in select oak casks and finished in hogshead 250-liter Scotch barrels featuring virgin American oak heads, Boss Hog III bursts forward with an aroma of perfectly aged oak and sweet hits of vanilla, caramel, and mint. The palate is full of fresh peat smothered in wisps of wood smoke and hints of dark earth. Bottled at a varying 60.1% ABV and produced in roughly 30 select barrels (notably not categorized as a single barrel due to the hogshead), Boss Hog III The Independent is rye straight, tried and true; a WhistlePig Farm winner – every time! …
