NV WhistlePig 15yo - Single Cask ID# 77030 (52.5%)

WhistlePig 15 Year Old Single Cask #123612 was selected under the expert guidance of Pete Lynch, WhistlePig’s Master Distiller, at the picturesque Vermont distillery. We secured this and more, after sampling over 30 different single casks. All the casks chosen have been bottled under the striking blue 15 Year Old label. This is one of the oldest ryes bottled from the award-winning farm-cum-distiller. Limited to just 132 bottles, Cask #123612 matured for 18 years in American White Oak before a one-and-a-half month finish in Vermont Oak. When nosing, there are the classic American oak vanilla notes and all the aromas which conjure up walking into a fine patisserie. Glazed cherries, mango, banana bread, brown sugar and warming cinnamon spice all invite you in. This is dangerously drinkable, with an oily mouthfeel which has you quickly reaching for more. Peppery rye spice seasons the sweet flavours and the finish is long.

On the palate, there are pleasing old leather, melon and caramel notes which lead to a long and complex finish. Only 132 bottles of this aged whiskey from the award-winning rye producer exist.
