WhistlePig The Boss Hog V: The Spirit of Mauve

Rich and mature with its deep flavors of spiced oak figgy fruit and varnish turning to candy apple dried flowers hazelnut torched sugar and cracked black pepper. The palate is explosive at full proof as sweet stone fruit gives way to earthy oak and tobacco. The calvados barrel maturation really sings on the finish where sweet apple candies and pecan pie meet big cinnamon and ginger spices. Incredibly drinkable at this proof with well-balanced oak.
