About the product

WhistlePig “Snout & Tail” 10 Year Old is a limited-edition single barrel rye whiskey that highlights the brand’s innovative approach to barrel finishing. Built on a well-aged rye foundation, it is enhanced through a specialized toasting process that deepens flavor and adds complexity.

On the palate, it opens with rich notes of caramel, vanilla, and toasted oak, followed by layers of brown sugar, baking spice, and subtle citrus. Classic rye characteristics of pepper and spice are present, balanced by hints of dark fruit and a touch of smokiness.

The texture is full-bodied and smooth, delivering a bold yet controlled intensity. The finish is long and warming, with lingering spice, toasted oak, and gentle sweetness.

Distinctive and refined, the “Snout & Tail” release offers a creative and elevated take on traditional rye whiskey, ideal for enthusiasts seeking depth and character.

Tasting Profile & Food Pairings

Taste Notes

At 88 proof, this bourbon is designed to be elegant and approachable rather than aggressive, with a heavy emphasis on the "toasted" wood character.

  • Nose Warm and nutty. You will find notes of honey, brown sugar, and toasted cashews, with an inviting scent of sweet cornbread and a faint hint of maple smoke.
  • Palate Soft and creamy. It opens with roasted almonds and buttered biscuits, followed by a mid-palate of caramel and golden raisins. The toasted oak provides a gentle dryness that balances the sweetness.
  • Finish Medium-length and mellow. It leaves a lingering trail of butterscotch, fresh wheat crust, and cedar, with a soft, toasted vanilla fade.

Food Pairings

The "toasted" profile and honeyed sweetness make this a natural match for fall flavors and rich, buttery textures.

  • Savory Glazed Pork Belly or Thick-Cut Bacon. The "whole-hog" branding of WhistlePig makes this a thematic match, while the salt and fat of the pork amplify the maple and honey notes in the bourbon.
  • Main Butternut Squash Soup with Toasted Pepitas. The earthy, nutty flavors of the soup resonate perfectly with the toasted cashew and almond notes on the palate.
  • Cheese Aged Gouda or Smoked Cheddar. The smokiness of the cheese pulls out the "tail toast" maple wood influence, while the nuttiness matches the oak.
  • Sweet Pecan Pie or Maple Bars. The brown sugar and caramel profile of the whiskey is a mirror image of these classic American desserts.

About the brand

WhistlePig is an independent whiskey company located on a 500-acre farm in Shoreham Vermont. Founded in 2007 the brand became famous for sourcing ultra-aged rye whiskey from Canada and finishing it in unique barrels on their farm. Under the guidance of late master distiller Dave Pickerell they lead a rye revolution proving that the category could be as complex and premium as any single malt scotch. Today the distillery has expanded into producing its own farm-to-bottle spirits and continues to push boundaries with experimental wood finishes and innovative aging techniques. Their signature logo featuring a pig wearing a top hat has become a symbol of rebellious luxury in the American whiskey world.
