‘The Boss Hog’, from Whistle Pig. This straight rye has been aged for 13 years - barrel strength and finished in Calvados casks. Palate: 🍁 Maple syrup & pears 🍐 are balanced by dark chocolate 🍫 and French oak spice. With water, the spice moves front and a fruit-forward character develops. 🐖 🥃 #whiskywednesday #whiskey #sanfrancisco #localeditionsf #bosshog #whistlepig
