WhistlePig The Boss Hog Sixth Edition, The Samurai Scientist, is a single-barrel straight rye whiskey from barrel #20, bottled in 2019 at 60.3% in a 75cl bottle. The name honours Jokichi Takamine, who pioneered koji fermentation in American whiskey more than a century ago.
The rye was made using koji fermentation and finished in casks that previously held Japanese umeshu.
It is intensely aromatic, with cinnamon, maple and toasted marshmallow. The palate brings tobacco, ginger, baking spices and savoury umami, and the finish is very long, with oak spice, char and a touch of smoke.
