WhistlePig Declaration Wheat Whiskey is a high-wheat American whiskey made from a blend of whiskeys sourced in Vermont and Indiana. The whiskey is double-aged in new American oak barrels before being finished in Wave Stave barrels, a process designed to create a gradient of toasted flavors and added complexity. Bottled at 43% ABV (86 proof), it is a limited-time release commemorating the United States' 250th anniversary and retails for around $87.

  • A smooth and simple whiskey. Not one of my favorites from WhistlePig, but it’s a light, easy sipper that would operate well as a summer whiskey. Serve it at your 4th party!

  • Quite sweet on the palate with a healthy dollop of almond butter and orange blossom honey, the rye influence is at first less evident but builds as the midpalate develops, effectively melding sweet and spice.

House Review
  • Nose:

    The nose is pretty tame — hay, cream, apple, nutmeg, a touch of blueberry and elderflower.

  • Taste:

    Thin to moderate mouthfeel. Oak and tannin meet wheat bread, blueberry pie, chestnut, coffee and lemon peel.

  • Finish:

    The finish is a mix of biscuits, pepper and coffee grounds.

  • Overall:

    A smooth and simple whiskey. Not one of my favorites from WhistlePig, but it’s a light, easy sipper that would operate well as a summer whiskey. Serve it at your 4th party!
