NEW CHARRED AMERICAN WHITE OAK BARRELS

The Whisky:-

PiggyBack 100% Rye is the final whiskey created by the late, legendary Master Distiller Dave Pickerell, the man widely credited with reviving American rye. 

 

Crafted from a 100% rye mash bill and aged a minimum of six years in new charred American oak, it is bottled at a precise 96.56 proof. Uncompromising and unapologetically rye, PiggyBack was designed to prove that a whiskey built for bartenders - bold enough for classic cocktails - could stand proudly on its own. 

 

From WhistlePig, the most awarded rye whiskey in the world.
