Whistle Pig Farmstock Rye Crop 003 (750ML)

93 Points, Kara Newman, Wine Enthusiast: [Top 100 Spirit of 2020] "This rye is complex and palate-coating, especially with a dose of water added. Each sip opens with honey, coconut and white chocolate, and finishes long with delicate candied ginger, lemony acidity and white pepper. Made with 100% rye, this is the third version of Farmstock, with the goal of eventually moving toward a fully estate-sourced whiskey. For now, about half the liquid in the bottle comes from a three-year-old Vermont rye, supplemented with six-year-old Canadian rye and a small amount of 10-year-old Canadian rye." 03/20

Comprised of 52% of our 3-year-old Rye Whiskey, blended with 31% 6-year aged whiskey and 17% 10 year aged whiskey from Alberta, Canada. </br> </br>On the nose it is sweet and aromatic, with vanilla, maraschino, roasted chestnuts and hints of cigar box. The palate is filled with oak, toffee and baking spices followed by soft notes of creme brulee and rose petals. The finish is warm and lasting with a pleasant Rye Spice"
