Description
The Boss Hog embodies the distilleries quest to create the most interesting and finest Rye Whiskey.
This pursuit carries them to the very edges of the earth.
WhistlePig’s The Boss Hog Magellan’s Atlantic 17 Year Old Cask Strength Rye Whiskey has been inspired by the first recorded circumnavigation of the globe – an uncharted cask journey that stretches across continents.
Aged for 17 years in American Oak, it first encounters new Spanish staves from the mountainous forests of northern Spain; a cask nearly impossible to tame yet well worth the effort.
Crossing the Atlantic the whiskey finds its finish in fragrant South American teakwood.
The resulting whisky is intensely aromatic with notes of maple, cinnamon sugar, and allspice.
With time aromas of toasted wood arise blended with roasted almonds, creamy vanilla, and a hint of ground espresso.
Spicy cloves and sweet brandied cherries flow across the palate with loads of baking spices.
The finish continues with the cinnamon and oak spice.
