WHISTLEPIG THE BOSS HOG WHISKEY RYE LIMITED FEATHER & FLAME XII EDITION VERMONT 750ML

The Boss Hog is among our oldest Rye Whiskeys and breaks new ground in maturation – this year aged in New American Oak and Pulque Curado de Cacao barrels

The Pulque Curado barrels were seasoned with Pulque fermented from agave and cured with both cacao and Mexican chili peppers to capture Xocolatl (pronounced ‘sho-KO-la-tuhl’) flavor alongside classic Rye strength and spice

 Feather & Flame alludes flavors forged in the fires of fermentation and The Boss Hog’s ascent to new sensory heights,
crowned in pewter with a reimagined Aztec deity

NOSE: Caramel, dark chocolate and orange zest

PALATE: Bright citrus leads the way, balanced by soft oak and cocoa with a subtle earthy spice in the background

FINISH: Savory cacao gives way to herbaceous chili pepper
