Wiggle Wednesday
Added 2024-04-10 20:19:43 +0000 UTCThis whiskey was a kind gift from a friend back East. It hails from Wigle Whiskey Distillery in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It’s always fun to discover new whiskey’s from all over the country.
It is a single barrel straight rye aged for 3 years in new charred oak barrels.
The brand is named after Phillip Wigle. But don’t let the cute name fool you! This man was anything but, convicted of treason in 1794, and sentenced to hang for his actions during the great Whiskey Rebellion. Wigle was said to have beaten up a tax collector and burned down his house. Only later to be pardoned by George Washington himself. Wigle distillery uses locally sourced, organic grains, distilling their Whiskey from scratch, milling their grains on site.
I do enjoy a rye every once in a while, especially in a Manhattan, but this one I enjoyed neat and liked it! Also, thank you to a dear West coast friend for the whiskey rocks and glasses! Cheers! 😊
Notes from Flaviar:
Nose / Aroma / Smell: Robust rye grain aroma, chestnut, caramel, and cedar.
Flavor / Taste / Palate: Smooth light vanilla, pepper, and apple.
Finish: Spicy pepper.
