WhistlePig 12 Year Old Single Barrel Apple Brandy Cask Rye Whiskey 750ml

Patience pays off. After four long years, a single barrel of WhistlePig has finally made its way to our shores, and what a sight to behold. This 12-year-old WhistlePig Rye, finished in an Apple Brandy Cask. The result?

The spirit glides smoothly across the palate, offering an initial sweetness that gently warms, evoking the comforting sensation of indulging in warm apple crumble. Gradually, this sweetness gives way to the distinct flavour of ripe apples, leaving a lingering memory of orchard freshness.

As you bring the glass to your nose, notes of orchard fruits greet you, accompanied by the tempting aroma of candy apples. Subtle hints of green peppercorn and grassy rye grain add complexity to the olfactory experience.

Upon tasting, the sweetness prevails, with flavours reminiscent of green grapes and toffee, enhanced by a subtle hint of cracked pepper for a playful twist. The overall sensation is full-bodied, with the unmistakable taste of overripe apples at its core.

The finish is gentle yet satisfying, with lingering hints of baking spices and caramel, providing a comforting warmth that completes the tasting journey on a memorable note.
