- Description
- WhistlePig's single barrel expression, drawn from cask 96064, represents a decade of maturation in American oak at a muscular 52.5% ABV. The 10-year age statement and cask strength deliver the concentration and complexity that elevated rye cocktails demand, with the extended aging softening rye's youthful heat while deepening oak integration. This is the sort of bottling that transforms a Manhattan from pleasant to memorable, offering substance and character that mixology-focused ryes are built for.
