WhistlePig Farmstock Beyond Bonded Rye Whiskey

The WhistlePig Farmstock Beyond Bonded Rye is crafted from grain to glass at the WhistlePig Farm and Distillery. It is a testament to WhistlePig's unyielding quest for crafting impeccable rye whiskeys right. This expression is part of a daring venture that commenced with a band of Rye enthusiasts finding solace in an abandoned dairy barn in Vermont's lush farm country. The Beyond Bonded Rye embodies their boldest dream, paying homage to the robust, heirloom crops at its essence. Each step of its journey, from farming in their backyard, distillation, and proofing with their well water to aging in sustainably harvested Vermont oak barrels, resonates with the pioneering spirit of WhistlePig Farm. This Straight Rye Whiskey is crafted meticulously at the WhistlePig Farm and Distillery, enshrining the wholesome essence of its origin.

Every barrel of the Beyond Bonded Rye narrates a unique tale, aged gracefully for a period ranging between 4 years, 1 month, and 30 days to 5 years, 2 months, and 16 days in Vermont Estate Oak barrels. The meticulous hand bottling in March 2022 at 100 proof further accentuates its farm-to-bottle ethos, offering a genuine taste of WhistlePig's rich heritage with every sip.​

Nose: Sweet and aromatic with whispers of vanilla, maraschino, roasted chestnuts, and a subtle hint of cigar box.

Palate: A delicate balance of oak, toffee, and baking spices paves the way for soft notes of crème brûlée and rose petals, creating a luscious complexity.

Finish: The finish is warm and enduring, leaving a pleasant rye spice lingering on the palate​.

The robust profile of WhistlePig Farmstock Beyond Bonded Rye pairs well with hearty meats like a well-marinated steak or barbecue ribs. Its spice notes complement the charred flavors, while the sweet undertones can balance the savory taste of the meat. Moreover, it can be a great accompaniment with rich, creamy desserts like a classic New York cheesecake or a chocolate mousse, where its spicy and oaky notes can cut through the sweetness and richness of the dessert, providing a well-rounded culinary experience.
