WhistlePig The BigShəBàng 30 Year Single Malt Whiskey

Process & Profile

WhistlePig The BigShəBàng 30 Year Single Malt Whiskey is an ultra-rare release from WhistlePig Distillery in Shoreham, Vermont, marking a significant milestone in North American whiskey production. Distilled from 100% malted barley, this single malt began its journey 30 years ago in 1995, a time when Forrest Gump won Best Picture and Windows 95 revolutionized tech. Initially aged in American oak barrels, it was finished in Vin Santo barrels, a rare amber dessert wine cask, amplifying its complexity. Bottled at 45.2% ABV (90.4 proof), this non-chill filtered, single-barrel whiskey delivers a colossal, mouthwatering profile, reflecting three decades of maturation.
