WhistlePig: Proof, 10 Year Rye, and Buying Guide

Updated April 2026.

WhistlePig’s flagship 10 Year is a 100-proof rye, not a bourbon buying chart. The official 10 Year page prints 10 years and 100 proof (50% ABV). A 1.5-ounce pour is 1.25 NIAAA drinks. US rye whisky is a ≥51% rye class under The brand calls this a “high Rye” whiskey. We will not invent a mash-bill percentage or a 2026 warehouse price.

Single-barrel lots are bottled at cask strength and move. Related: rye under $50, rye Old Fashioned, rye vs bourbon.
