WhistlePig 12 Year Old World Straight Rye Marriage Whiskey

Whiskey: WhistlePig 12 Year Old World Straight Rye Marriage
Rye inspired by Old World barrel-aging traditions. This 86-proof 12 year-old Rye Whiskey is a marriage of whiskeys aged in New American Oak and ingeniously finished in Port (7%,) French Sauternes (30%,) and Madeira casks (63%). We’ve taken the elements that are most quintessential in an American rye – boldness and character – and fused them with the elegance and grace of an 18 year old Scotch.

Famous for being truly singular bourbon, Wild Turkey is a Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey. Wild Turkey is distilled a low proof with very little water to seal its flavor. As a result Wild Turkey is full flavored and very similar to the authentic bourbon taste one would get straight from the barrel. By adding a little water, the caramel gives way to a richer chocolate flavor. This 101 proof has a fragrance of violet and honeysuckle, with a sweet taste of peaches, chocolate and caramel.
