Tasting Notes
WhistlePig's Boss Hog X: The Ten Commandments is not your average rye. This tenth release in the Boss Hog series takes a bold turn, finishing Canadian rye in two unorthodox ways. First, it's seasoned in barrels with an experimental spirit distilled from rye and whey, infused with aromatic resins reminiscent of frankincense and myrrh. Then, it gets a final kiss from craft mead casks. The result? A complex profile where honeyed sweetness dances with unexpected spice, like apricot, vanilla, and black pepper, with a hint of incense. While some might miss the traditional rye punch, others will appreciate the unique blend of flavors that makes this high-proof offering a memorable, if pricey, experience.
