Overview

A long and patiently aged whiskey is only as good as the grain it’s born from. With our oldest expression to date, we’re tapping into the time-honored techniques of the farmer distillers who invented the category in America’s early days. To kick start fermentation they malted a small portion of their yearly harvest. This delicate heating process opens up the grain, allowing yeasts easier access to the sugars they’ll soon convert to alcohol. It also imbues the resulting spirit with floral and earthy tonalities. Our mash bill 79% rye, 15% malted rye and 6% malted barley creates a sipping experience that evolves on the palate from soft and supple to rich and savory. A thrilling encounter accentuated by 18 years of maturation in virgin oak.

Each annual edition of our Double Malt Rye is crowned with a bespoke glass topper, handmade in Vermont. Certified Kosher.

Bourbon for Special Occasions

"I got this for my golden wedding anniversary. Although my palate isn't particularly sophisticated, this is one of those dishes that you finish eating and realize, "Man, that is good. " I recommend drinking it neat on exceptional occasions in moderation given the expense. Admire the handcrafted glass stopper in particular."

Krishnamurthy (5/5)

I had the best whistlepig ever.

"Yes, the cool crystal bottle topper doesn't fit and that's ridiculous for a >$400 bottle. But the rye itself is out-of-this-world good. Smooth, caramelly, complex, and deep. The 15 is good but the 18 truly is special. I prefer this neat & room temp."

Baek J. (4/5)

Exceptionally Smooth 18 Year

"I purchased this bottle as an anniversary gift for my husband, an avid rye fan (as am I) The 18 yr did not disappoint. However, we both still prefer the 15 yr over the 18 yr. even without factoring in the price difference between the two the 15 yr is still hands down our favorite!"

Gorlassar W. (4/5)

It's essentially a sweet liquid.

"For me, it clicks automatically and has a much nicer flavor that remains in your mouth. This does not let you down. It does provide what is needed."

Muriel B. (5/5)

Outstanding ingredients for malt straight whiskey

"This was without a doubt the best one available. The flavor was simply outstanding. When I initially received it, I was astounded."

Tàmmaro R. (5/5)

Overall, I really liked the bottle.

"Has undertones of banana bread and major league chew bubble gum, and has the flavor of an older Whistle Pig. long finish and quite smooth."

Langstaff55 (5/5)

Fantastic, even at $529. 99 a bottle.

"Even at $529. 99 per bottle, this 18-year-old whistlepig whiskey is excellent. It's something I really enjoy having in my bar all the time."

Mok M. (5/5)

It was excellent yet costly.

"I thought the flavor was fantastic, but the price is just too high; it is not worth the cost."

Garrick R. (3/5)

Both the price and the flavor are impressive.

"I am a whiskey collector. I don't even consume alcohol. Sad, I know, but impressively expensive and tasteful"
