Whistle Pig PiggyBack Rye Whiskey launched in select US markets in 2019 as a permanent addition to the WhistlePig core range. Crafted by the late legendary master distiller Dave Pickerell who passed away in 2018 and master blender Pete Lynch, WhistlePig PiggyBack Rye is a 6 year-old 100% rye whiskey. Introducing an affordable rye with tons of character. It’s sweet on the nose and spicy up front with notes of apple, vanilla, and cacao. It has the strength to stand up in a cocktail but will also be quite enjoyable on its own for fans of bold American whiskeys.
