New Release – The Boss Hog VII – Whistle Pig at Hard To Find Whisky – American Whiskey News
The Boss Hog VII – Magellan’s Atlantic
Following in the footsteps of The Boss Hogs before it, the seventh edition in this collectible series is distinctly different than anything else in American Whiskey. A Straight Rye Whiskey Aged 17 Years and finished in two uncommon casks, this limited release is inspired by the first recorded circumnavigation of the globe.
Single barrel, bottled at proof, and powerfully complex, The Boss Hog VII: Magellan’s Atlantic offers an incredible journey of aromas and flavour. Displayed in a bespoke gift box and each bottle crowned with a bespoke pewter stopper, designed and made by Danforth Pewter 11 miles from the WhistlePig Farm.
Official Tasting Notes
Nose: Intensely aromatic, with cinnamon sugar, allspice, and maple. With time, toasted wood notes arise alongside creamy vanilla, roasted almonds, and a touch of ground espresso.
Palate: Spicy cloves and sweet brandied cherries abound, with baking spices rampant. A closer look reveals subtle hints of charred oak, sage, and dark chocolate.
Finish: Everlasting; gobs of cinnamon, oak spice, and a gentle warmth demand another sip.
