WhistlePig The Boss Hog VIII – Lapulapu’s Pacific Rye Whiskey – Legendary Depth with a Pacific Finish

The eighth edition in WhistlePig’s revered Boss Hog series, Lapulapu’s Pacific pays homage to the Filipino hero who defeated Magellan, reflecting both strength and independence. This bold expression starts with a straight rye aged no fewer than 17 years, then finishes in single-island Philippine rum casks for a complex, tropical-infused finale. Each bottle is crowned with a bespoke pewter topper depicting Lapulapu himself.
