WhistlePig The Boss Hog XII - Feather & Flame Straight Rye Whiskey
(750 mL) - [

Distillery Notes:

Every year, The Boss Hog charts new territory in whiskey, pushing the limits of craft and cask to create a one-of-a-kind single barrel Rye. Recognized as the most collectible North American whiskey, The Boss Hog XII: Feather & Flame is no exception. Inspired by the sacred ceremonial drinks of Mesoamerica, Feather & Flame unites the wild fermentation of pulque with the spiced chocolaty depth of xocoatl.

Back on the Farm, we recreated these ancient flavors in a pulque curado de cacao, infused with cacao nibs and dried chilis, then used it to season barrels before finishing our Straight Rye in this world’s-first expression. The result? Aztec flavors forged in the fires of creation. 

Tasting Notes:

The first pour opens with dark chocolate and orange zest, gives way to bright citrus, oak, and cocoa on the palate, and finishes with a touch of chili heat and fresh herbs. Unapologetically unique, Bottled at Proof, and Pulque-Finished to Perfection, Feather & Flame is the twelfth divine chapter in The Boss Hog saga—rebellion, ritual, and Rye in one legendary bottle.
