Founded in 2015
In 2007, aspiring Whiskey-maker Raj Bhakta bought the farm … in that he actually purchased a plot of land in Vermont lovingly named Whistle Pig Farm. He teamed up with master distiller Dave Pickerell—formerly of Maker’s Mark—to bring genuine Rye Whiskey back to the forefront of American Whiskies.

Their vision was to make Whistle Pig an “estate producer,” which means that all aspects of Whiskey production would be on site from growing the grain to bottling the spirit. 2015 was the first year that this had become a reality (Yea Whistle Pig!).

They started with three core products and have been experimenting with a variety of finished wood Rye Whiskeys. All of their production is getting a lot of attention, winning tons of awards, and has become coveted by Rye Whiskey lovers and bartenders all over the world. These guys know what they are doing.

What the heck is a “whistle pig” anyway? Even though the label for Whistle Pig Rye is adorned with the sketch of a tuxedo-clad hog, “whistlepig,” groundhog, and woodchuck all refer to the same animal.
