WhistlePig is a premium American whiskey brand based in Vermont, USA. The distillery is especially well known for being led by the legendary master distiller Dave Pickerell, who previously helped shape Maker’s Mark. Wanting to focus on rye whiskey — a style not central to Maker’s Mark — Dave dedicated himself to crafting exceptional rye at WhistlePig.
Although the distillery is located in the United States, WhistlePig sources its rye whiskey distillate from Alberta, Canada. This high-quality spirit is produced from the same region known for supplying whisky used in Crown Royal, reflecting Dave Pickerell’s uncompromising pursuit of creating truly outstanding rye whiskey.
WhistlePig 10 Year Rye is a whiskey that reveals a striking contrast between its sweet vanilla-forward character and the bold, spicy intensity unique to rye. Its nose and palate evolve in unexpectedly different ways, creating a layered and memorable experience. The whiskey also received an outstanding 96-point rating from a major wine and spirits publication, earning recognition as one of the highest-rated rye whiskies in history.
