About this bottle
WhistlePig's The Boss Hog has occasionally been released or featured in rare 5cl (50ml) miniature formats.
Because The Boss Hog is an ultra-premium, highly limited annual release, miniature bottlings are incredibly rare and typically only appear through specialist online auctions or select promotional tasting sets.

About the distillery
WhistlePig is a whiskey distillery based in Vermont. The distillery primarily makes rye whiskey, and is known for "ultra-premium" rye, a category it largely occupied alone in the early 21st century. WhistlePig dates to 2007, when entrepreneur Raj Bhakta purchased land for the WhistlePig distillery. The whiskey brand was launched in 2010, and its first product, its 10-year rye, was released in 2015.
