Tasting Notes

WhistlePig PiggyBack 6 Year Old Bourbon Whiskey 700ml
100% Corn Bourbon - 50% ABV | WhistlePig Distillery, Vermont

Bourbon Built the WhistlePig Way - Big Flavour, No Compromise

PiggyBack 6 Year Old Bourbon marks a bold step into corn country for a distillery renowned for rye. Yet it remains unmistakably WhistlePig – fearless in profile, crafted with purpose, and built for flavour first. This is not a lightweight bourbon designed to blend in. It's a 100 proof sipper with structure, spice, and a long Kentucky drawl under its Vermont-made label.

Where traditional bourbon leans sweet, PiggyBack leans into richness. It uses a 100 percent corn mash bill – rare in the category – yielding a creamy, weighty heart. A full six years in barrel smooths the edges and deepens complexity.

The nose is full and warm with buttered corn muffin, vanilla pod, toffee, and roasted peanut. A flicker of citrus peel and oak char keeps sweetness in check.

On the palate, the all-corn foundation delivers density. Caramel fudge, kettle corn, and honeyed oak lead the way, followed by cinnamon, nutmeg, and a touch of grassiness. The mouthfeel is rich and satisfying.

The finish is long and persistent, closing with toasty oak, warm spice, and a wave of caramelised sugar.

Bold in Mashbill and Manner
This is not your standard bourbon. PiggyBack's all-corn profile offers weight without cloying sweetness. Six years in barrel give it backbone and polish. It's bottled at 50 percent ABV, giving it both muscle for cocktails and finesse for sipping.

Final Thought
PiggyBack Bourbon is WhistlePig's bourbon, but not just another bourbon. It’s a bottle with voice, heart, and grit. If you like your whiskey bold, buttery, and unapologetically corn-fed, this is your pour.

Distillation & Provenance

Crafted only for our premium spirits

Distillation

WhistlePig PiggyBack 6 Year Old is a 100-proof bourbon whiskey produced at the WhistlePig Farm in Shoreham, Vermont, using a high-corn mash bill with a small proportion of rye — giving the bourbon a slightly spicier backbone than purely corn-forward Kentucky expressions. The bourbon is aged for six years in Char 3 charred new American oak barrels and bottled at 100 proof (50% ABV). The distillate combines Vermont-produced spirit with sourced bourbon from Kentucky and Indiana, blended and aged at the Vermont farm. The higher 100-proof bottling gives PiggyBack a more robust texture well-suited to citrus cocktails and sour drinks as well as neat sipping. The expression carries notes of corn sweetness, vanilla, caramel, and gentle rye spice.

Provenance

WhistlePig is a rye whiskey brand and farm distillery located on a 500-acre estate in Shoreham, Vermont. The brand was founded in 2007 by entrepreneur Raj Bhakta on the historic farm property, with a mission to restore rye whiskey to its rightful place in American distilling. WhistlePig first built its reputation on exceptional sourced Canadian rye whiskey, before developing its own estate distillation programme using rye grain grown on the Vermont farm. The WhistlePig 10 Year, released in 2010, earned 96 points from Wine Enthusiast — the highest score the publication had given a rye whiskey — and is widely credited with helping lead the modern American rye revival.
