WhistlePig Old World Rye Aged 12 Years
Regular price
$169.00
WhistlePig 12 Year Old World Cask Finish Rye is a premium expression that showcases innovation within traditional rye whiskey. Distilled in Canada from 100% rye and finished at the WhistlePig Farm in Vermont, this exceptional whiskey is aged for 12 years and finished in a trio of European wine casks: 63% Madeira, 30% Sauternes, and 7% Port. This unique finishing process imparts layers of complexity while allowing the bold rye character to shine through.
On the nose, expect rich aromas of dried fruit, honey, toasted oak, and baking spice. The palate is elegant and nuanced, offering notes of caramel, orange peel, vanilla, and subtle floral tones, with a touch of red berries and spice. The wine-cask influence adds sweetness and depth, while the finish is long, smooth, and slightly tannic with lingering spice.
Bottled at 43% ABV, WhistlePig 12 is a refined sipping rye, ideal for slow appreciation. It bridges old-world elegance with bold American spirit, making it a favourite among collectors and connoisseurs. Whether you’re new to rye or a seasoned enthusiast, WhistlePig 12 is a must-try for anyone seeking complexity, craftsmanship, and a world-class whiskey experience. Premium, polished, and perfectly balanced.
