Whistlepig 12 Year Old World Rye Bourbon Enthusiast 750ml

WhistlePig 12 Year Old World is part of the Vermont rye producer's Old World Cask Finish Series, finishing 12-year rye whiskey across three different European wine cask types — typically Sauternes, Madeira and Port — before blending them back together. That trio of sweet, fortified and dessert-wine casks layers fruit, spice and nutty oxidative notes onto rye's natural pepper and grain character. Expect dried fruit and rye spice on the nose, a rich, layered palate of caramel, dark fruit and baking spice, and a long, warming finish. This bottling was picked for the Bourbon Enthusiast community.

How to drink WhistlePig Old World 12 Year

Neat, in a tulip glass, is the way to catch the three-cask layering — a whiskey built for sipping and comparing, not mixing.
