WhistlePig is back with PiggyBack! Try saying that 10 times real fast. Tongue-twisters aside, this is a terrific six year old rye whiskey created by the late Dave Pickerell to be the best rye to use in cocktails. We'd say he did a phenomenal job. Made with 100% rye, and bottled up at 48.3% ABV, this boasts all the hallmarks of excellent rye whiskey, and we're sure your Manhattans, Old Fashioneds, Vieux Carrés, and more will appreciate it.
Tangy orange and lemon, balanced by robust pepper warmth and a touch of caraway.
Slightly chocolatey, but still big on the ripe fruit and toasty spices.
Cinnamon, new leather, buttery toffee.
A really nice whiskey. Having dabbled in ryes before, I was really pleased with how this stood up to strong flavours and citrus in cocktails, much more than some more expensive brands. Earthy, almost scotch like in some ways - worth the money for sure
Very good alcohol, very smooth, just great.
This is one hell of a good 100% rye whiskey. Spicy & sharp with a bite, but also, a smooth fade to the finish. One of the best American ryes I've ever had. Well-done, Whistlepig!
