In the wake of a recent July harvest at their distillery's expansive farm, WhistlePig Whiskey embarks on one of its most audacious annual whiskey experiments with the release of FarmStock Beyond Bonded.
This remarkable offering represents a limited-edition, 100% farm-to-bottle whiskey, setting a new pinnacle for WhistlePig's commitment to craft and authenticity. FarmStock Beyond Bonded is not merely a bottled-in-bond expression; it was meticulously cultivated and distilled at the WhistlePig Farm & Distillery nestled in Shoreham, Vermont, all within a single season, and is proudly bottled at an invigorating 100 proof.
Taking their dedication to transparency to the next level, WhistlePig ensures that each bottled barrel is fully traceable throughout every phase of the whiskey's journey. A remarkable 30 unique points of traceability are accessible through a QR code ingeniously incorporated into each bottle's label.
This whiskey gem represents WhistlePig's most exclusive release yet, with a limited inventory of only 23 barrels. FarmStock Beyond Bonded is meticulously crafted from grains nurtured on WhistlePig's expansive nine fields spanning 500 acres. It undergoes distillation and proofing using the farm's pristine well water and matures gracefully in Vermont oak sourced sustainably.
The eagerly awaited 2023 release introduces a trifecta of flavors, featuring three barrels of Straight Wheat Whiskey alongside 11 barrels of Straight Rye Whiskey and nine barrels of Straight Bourbon Whiskey.
The Straight Wheat Whiskey is a notable addition, boasting a mash bill composed entirely of 100% wheat from WhistlePig's experimental crop fields. This addition offers a softer and more delicate dimension to the collection, complementing the signature 100% Rye and the High Rye Bourbon, with a mash bill comprised of 51% corn and 49% Rye.
"FarmStock Beyond Bonded stands as a testament to our unwavering commitment to the whiskey world," affirms Meghan Ireland, Chief Blender at WhistlePig. "This extraordinary release represents our most ambitious experiment yet, where we maintain absolute control over every facet of the process, right here on the farm. It all began with rye, and now we're thrilled to embark on this journey with bourbon, wheat, and other exceptional whiskeys."
This exceptional release of FarmStock Beyond Bonded will be exclusively available in Vermont until the conclusion of summer. Whiskey enthusiasts can secure their bottles at the private WhistlePig Farm & Distillery, the welcoming WhistlePig Tasting Room located in Quechee, VT, or through select retailers, bars, and restaurants across the state.
