WhistlePig The Boss Hog X transcends tradition with a double finish inspired by their own land of milk and honey. Each barrel of Straight Rye Whiskey is aged in new American Oak before completing its journey in two unorthodox finishing barrels.

The first however seasons with their own experimental spirit – distilled from rye and whey, infused with aromatic resins from the genera commonly known as Frankincense and Myrrh.

Delivering notes of creme brulee, lemongrass and rosemary to the final whiskey.

The second and final finish however is aged in craft mead casks, offering a mellow, round-bodied finish with hints of red berries and freshly crushed black pepper.

The result – thousands of years’ worth of wonder condensed into a bottle of biblical proportions, righteously rendered at barrel proof.
