WhistlePig 10 Year Old Snout to Tail Toasted Barrel Rye Whiskey is a rare, limited-edition release from the Vermont-based distillery that has become synonymous with premium American rye. Since its founding in 2007, WhistlePig has redefined what rye whiskey can be, combining bold flavor with innovative maturation techniques. The Snout to Tail release pushes this philosophy even further, blending WhistlePig’s signature 10-year rye with a unique secondary finish in toasted barrels for an added layer of richness and complexity.

The whiskey begins with 100% rye grain spirit, a hallmark of WhistlePig, aged for a decade in new American oak barrels. This extended aging allows the rye’s naturally spicy, robust character to integrate with layers of caramelized sugars and oak depth. The whiskey is then finished in carefully selected toasted barrels, a process that enhances sweetness, amplifies vanilla and baking spice notes, and rounds the edges of the high-rye intensity. The result is a rye that is powerful, complex, and refined, with a balance of bold grain character and luxurious toasted oak influence.

As part of WhistlePig’s single barrel and specialty release program, Snout to Tail carries the individuality of a limited bottling, with each release offering its own nuances. Bottled at higher proof to preserve intensity, it reflects WhistlePig’s commitment to authenticity and unfiltered flavor. Presentation includes the brand’s distinctive bottle shape and labeling, accented to mark it as a special toasted barrel edition.

For whiskey enthusiasts and collectors, WhistlePig 10 Year Old Snout to Tail Toasted Barrel Rye Whiskey is more than just another rye—it is a statement of innovation within tradition, a chance to experience how secondary maturation can transform an already world-class whiskey. Rare, bold, and meticulously crafted, it is a standout in WhistlePig’s growing portfolio of limited editions.

Taste Notes & Food Pairings

Taste Notes WhistlePig 10 Year Old Snout to Tail Toasted Barrel Rye Whiskey is a bold, sophisticated rye with remarkable depth and complexity. The palate opens with signature rye spice—black pepper, clove, and a hint of cinnamon—layered over rich toasted oak, caramel, and vanilla. The toasted barrel finish adds nuanced notes of dark chocolate, roasted nuts, and subtle smokiness, while dried fruit and gentle baking spices carry through. The finish is long, warming, and elegantly balanced, with spice and sweetness intertwined seamlessly. Its texture is full-bodied yet silky, rewarding slow, attentive sipping.

Food Pairings This rye pairs beautifully with robust grilled or smoked meats, such as pepper-crusted beef, roasted game, or smoked pork ribs, where its spicy and toasty notes enhance savory richness. It complements aged or nutty cheeses like sharp cheddar or smoked gouda, and desserts that feature warming spices, caramel, or nuts—pecan pie, gingerbread, or dark chocolate truffles resonate perfectly with its layered character. Roasted nuts, dried figs, or spiced fruit compotes also harmonize with its depth, spice, and smooth toasted finish.
