Splash 'n Dash - Review of Piggyback Rye Whiskey - Does it Have More Decimals Than Flavor?

from Blind Tasting Podcast · host John Starck

Welcome to the Splash n Dash edition of the Blind Tasting Podcast—where we skip the backstory and get straight to the sipping. Today I crack open WhistlePig’s PiggyBack 100% Rye, and yeah… we need to talk about that oddly specific 96.56 proof. Who proofed this—an accountant?I break down the whiskey, question the Canadian sourcing mystery, and wrestle with whether this $50 bottle deserves a spot in your cabinet. Is it just a fancy mixer, or something more? And of course, I deliver the final verdict: Keep it, Collect it, or Cull it?Plus, I throw a little shade, throw a few compliments, and throw back a pour—so grab a glass and let’s ride.Like what I'm doing?
