One of our oldest whiskeys ever bottled is also the first WhistlePig product finished in Vermont Estate Oak. Harvested right off our farm the wood has more rings than the standard American oak used in whiskey barrels. That gives it more opportunity to impart deeper flavors during maturation. Hitting the bottle at 92-proof, the liquid is assertive and wise beyond its 15 year age statement. The nose is deep and rich, dominated by caramel, vanilla, and oak with hints of allspice and burnt orange. The palate is warm, rich, and slightly creamy. Loads of butterscotch and baking spice with leather and a hint of tobacco. The finish is ultra long and rich, warm, and inviting.
