Description
About WhistlePig The Beholden 21 Year Single Malt Whiskey
WhistlePig was founded in 2008 at an old farm in Shoreham, Vermont. Until his passing in 2018, the WhistlePig farm had been home to the founding father of craft whiskey, Master Distiller Dave Pickerell. With his help, Whistle Pig quickly rose to fame as the most awarded rye whiskey maker in the world. They are all about breaking boundaries, and whiskey age is one of them. With the oldest rye whiskey already in their collection, they have set their sights on the American single malt category, which is where WhistlePig The Beholden comes in. The whiskey was distilled from 100% malted barley through copper pot stills from Scotland. Then it patiently matured for a record-breaking 21 years before being finished in WhistlePig rye casks. 18 barrels of this limited-edition single-barrel American single malt were bottled at 92 proof.

About WhistlePig
Founded in 2008, WhistlePig is now the most awarded rye whiskey maker in the world. Their remote 500-acre hard-working farm in bucolic Shoreham, Vermont, is the perfect place to perfect their experiments with blending and finishing, ultimately leading to a portfolio of deeply complex rye whiskeys. In 2017 WhistlePig was awarded the coveted “Best In Show Whiskey” title from the San Francisco World Spirits Competition. Until his passing in 2018 the WhistlePig farm had been home to the founding father of craft whiskey, Master Distiller Dave Pickerell.
Their vision is to respect tradition and embrace progress, protecting what makes rye whiskey great, and at the same time innovating to make it better. After years of devotion to patient aging and innovative blending, WhistlePig has turned their attention to experimenting with grain, namely the practice of malting rye. Before industrial catalysts we re introduced to increase efficiency, farmer distillers would malt a small portion of their rye harvest in order to access the grain’s starch content and set off the fermentation process.
About American Whiskey
There are two main representatives of the American whiskey family, bourbon, and rye, but some other spirits don’t fall into those two strictly regulated categories.
There’s equally strictly regulated American single malt, made from 100% malted barley, Tennessee whiskey, essentially bourbon filtered through maple charcoal and aged in new charred oak barrels.
And then there’s moonshine, a high proof (150- 170 proof) distilled spirit mainly made out of corn which gained popularity during the prohibition.
