WhistlePig 13 Year Old – The Boss Hog 2018 Edition

WhistlePig’s annual Boss Hog releases are always very exciting expressions for rye enthusiasts, and the 2018 edition most certainly will make a few eyebrows raise excitedly. It’s a 13 year old rye whiskey, which has been finished in Calvados casks, in honour of WhistlePig’s Mauve and her love of apples. Apples are great, so that’s understandable. The Calvados casks have helped to bolster the stewed orchard fruit notes at the core of the spirit.
