The Boss Hog 5th Edition Spirit of Mauve Straight Rye Whiskey 750ml
WhistlePig Farm The Boss Hog series is a celebrated collection of limited-release whiskies. This featured bottling is WhistlePig Farm The Boss Hog 5th Edition Spirit of Mauve - a straight rye whiskey that has matured for a minimum of 13 years and then finished in select Calvados casks. Calvados is a Normandy-distilled French brandy crafted from either apples or pears - and with apples being WhistlePig Farm's pet pig Mauve's favorite food, The Boss Hog 5th Edition seems like a rather fitting tribute! Each bottle of this coveted release is proudly topped with a handcrafted Danforth pewter stopper in the shape of the beloved Mauve, regally ascending to her place in the sky. Sourced from 95% MGP rye mash stock, The Boss Hog 5th Edition Spirit of Mauve is bottled at 119-proof. Expect deep layers of sweet apples roasted with savory herbs, cinnamon, and peaches on the nose with smooth waves of warm spice, rye, vanilla, and cinnamon enveloping the palate.

Peruse Fetness remark beneath - its spot on for my judgment. Quite intricate rye loads of flavor and inconspicuous warmth. Worth the pour!

This was 48 USD for 1.5 oz pour. Test rating: normal +7 = 3.5/5 with the cost considered in. My new scoring framework goes from short interminable to in addition to vast and 0 is the Glenfiddich 12. There's is hence no weight in misrepresenting something excessively near some most extreme conceivable score. +7 I've chosen is an incredible score. I may buy a jug of this $500 rye. Tune in: there is no rationale behind taking care of a container of alcohol; you accept it for silly reasons... what's more the market. In all actuality if Manager Hoard was sensible at $100-200 it would never again be on the racks and the auxiliary market would value this at closer to $1000. The sticker price keeps the flippers out of it and makes this accessible to genuine devotees of rye. In any case I don't care for rye! It's not legitimate. Be that as it may the tale about a Pig named Mauve and her affection for apples adds to the passionate pull. The Supervisor Hoard arrangement has shown signs of improvement and better at offsetting extraordinary barrels with a truly strong matured rye. The herbaciousness of the rye is an incredible spine for a wide range of organic products and the feature here is apple. You can taste the Calvados impact here. There's caramel apple crusty fruit-filled treat and even pungency of green appleskins. Simultaneously the rye isn't lost and this is really an ideal marriage. This Supervisor Hoard V is a lot gentler than Manager Hoard IV (The Dark Ruler) which is a frenzy of dim products of the soil. I can really taste this slick where I needed to add water to the past two Supervisor Pigs. To contrast it with the two past Manager Pigs: III (The Autonomous) at ~$350: Quite normal measure and certainly not justified despite any potential benefits. IV (The Dark Sovereign) at ~$450: Amazing and I purchased a container decisively in the wake of attempting it. V (Soul of Mauve) at ~$500: Generally excellent and I am thinking about purchasing a jug.
