Unprecedented Whiskey forged in unprecedented times.
The quirky New Englander and the only distiller with celebrity pigs releases a one-of-a-kind expression each Spring. Spring 2020, however, saw everyone being forced to stay home and responsibly un-socialize. So, it was expected that the new WhistlePig offering would be something unprecedented, like the situation itself. Flaviar Members were given the opportunity to become Master Blenders-at-Home and use the lockdown to create an exceptional Whiskey. The quickest ones got a beautiful blending kit, experimented, submitted their recipes, and picked the winner among three finalists during a live online blending event. Now, meet the winner.
WhistlePig Homestock offers a unique blend of rye, wheat, and barley Whiskeys, delivering a light and gentle sweetness as a balance to the signature rye boldness. The gorgeous nose with notes of vanilla, orange zest, and pipe tobacco introduces the spicy and mouthwatering palate with hints of nutmeg, roasted nuts, and ripe berries. This is a Whiskey the Flaviar Family should be proud of. What did you learn during the quarantine? How to blend Whiskey!

Moonshine Whiskey is distilled from a varied mix of corn and sugar and is aged in Mason jars and jugs for the length of time it takes the customers to get home.
An un-aged American Whisky is often called “white dog.”Sour Mash is the fermentation process by which a percentage of a previous fermentation is added to a new batch as a "starter" to get the fermentation going and maintain a level of consistency from batch to batch. A sweet mash means that only fresh yeast is added to a new batch to start fermentation.
Tennessee Whiskey closely parallels Bourbon, but final filtering through sugar-maple charcoal (called the Lincoln County Process) is what some producers say differentiates them. Tennessee Whiskey’s finish is sweeter and smoother than Bourbon.
Bourbon rules refer to manufacturing methods rather than location. Bourbon must be matured in new and charred American white oak casks for at least 2 years. If the bottle has no age statement, the Bourbon is at least 4 years old. No coloring or flavoring of any type is allowed, and the mash bill must contain at least 51% corn.
Corn Whiskey is a commercial product that must contain at least 80% corn, be distilled at less than 80% ABV (160 proof), and, if wood-aged, may be aged in either used or new un-charred barrels.
George Washington was a man of many talents being both a military braniac and the First President of the United States. Interestingly, he also became the largest Whiskey producer in the United States after leaving the politics.
