WhistlePig The Boss Hog XIII The Golden Pharaoh Straight Rye Whiskey 750ML

The Boss Hog XIII: The Golden Pharaoh is the 2026 edition of WhistlePig's annual single-barrel, cask-strength straight rye. Inspired by a 3,000-year-old tiger nut cake recipe found in an Egyptian tomb, the rye is finished in barrels seasoned with Egyptian black honey (a sugarcane molasses syrup) and tiger nuts, and is bottled between 102.6 and 105.6 proof (51.3–52.8% ABV) depending on the barrel. Each bottle carries a pewter topper inspired by King Tut featuring the Eye of Horus, with a small number receiving a rare gold topper.

Expect brown sugar, cinnamon, and toasted almond on the nose, deep molasses turning to light honey on the palate with baking spice and black pepper, and a soft finish of toasted almond and oatmeal. Sip it neat or with a few drops of water.
