"WhistlePigall started with the purchase of a farm in Shoreham, Vermont by founder Raj Bhakta as he was looking for his next venture. The name, as the story goes, comes from a run-in with a Frenchmen in search of a groundhog, a.k.a. the whistle pig. On a quest to revive American rye whiskey—the likes of which to rival the best imports from Scotland and Ireland—the company has a great mission far beyond just the award-winning liquid in each bottle. WhistlePig's mission has been deemed Triple Terroir™—making the most of its 500-acre farm and getting to a point where everything in the bottle can be sourced from the land. It starts with the rye and other crops grown on the farm to pulling water from onsite wells and goes all the way up to harvesting the land's oak for the barrel-aging process." - Aaron Hutcherson
