Christmas showdown! @whistlepigwhiskey Farmstock Crop 003 is a blend of 10 year old Canadian rye, 6 year old Canadian rye, and 3 year old Vermont rye. It's smooth and sweet up front with a spicy dill kick on the way down. Makes for easy sipping but doesn't let you forget it is RYE! The 6 year old Piggyback is made to stand up in cocktails. Its 100% rye mashbill is strong and spicy. Die hard rye fans will happily drink it neat. . . . #whistlepig #rye #ryewhiskey #tripleterroir #farmstock #bottledinbarn #piggyback #togetherweryed #davepickerell #vermont #whiskey #whisky #aquavitae #uiscebeatha #uisgebeatha #whiskyaesthetic #womenwhowhiskey (at Tabernacle in Turner) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJPncxCs6fB/?igshid=xrboiz9a6cs9

Took my bottle of @blackenedamericanwhiskey to my bar to crack open with my fellow bourbon chick/bartender, @q._sabreen. I had already about the process of this whiskey that Dave Pickerell had a hand in with @metallica using a process called “Black Noise” during the barreling process using the music to further the flavor of the blended bourbons, whiskies and ryes. Aroma is sweet and fruity. Very smooth taste were the spice hits the tongue and the finish is soft linger of heat down the throat. We both highly approve and enjoy this blended whiskey! Absolutely love each batch has its own playlist used during the Black Noise process. #metallicablackenedwhiskey #whiskey #metallica #davepickerell #blacknoise #bourbonsteward #abvnetworkcrewclub #abvnetworkchallengecoin #whiskeychick #bourbonnerd #flaviarclub (at Belle Tavern) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2iDOuLg-iS/?igshid=1c2nvsvoflpvo

It has taken us a week to internalize the loss. We first want to send our love and condolences to Dave’s family and his close friends. Dave was larger than life. His whiskey knowledge second to none. The cocktail and bar scene has forever been changed for his work and love of rye whiskey. We are honored to have known him and feel blessed to be able to help share some of his whiskey with our friends and family. Tonight we raise a glass in his honor. Rest easy Dave, thank you. There will be a little more angels share to be had now. 🙏🏼🥃 #davepickerell ❤️ https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp8ZN5GnxJx/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1vqjciqfcqjhg

🥃BOSS: Icon, Dave Pickerell, sadly passed on Dia de los Muertos (November 1st, 2018) a day intended to celebrate those who passed but remain 'alive' through us and in the way we remember them. Thanks to Coco for the truncated lesson. I never got to meet this American whiskey icon, but I have enjoyed his unique expressions and can't wait to continue enjoy his new works (@blackenedamericanwhiskey). As a creator myself I admire so much of what these innovative craft distillers do. So much so, I felt the need to draw him in celebration of his legacy! Pickerell will be remembered as a pioneer, innovator and an authentic master craftsman. The whiskey landscape will surely miss his genius. So, anytime you have an American craft whiskey, raise your glasses to this man's memory, since he helped bring it to life here in the US... I know I'll be enjoying each dram a little bit longer to be insure his memory thrives. #tattoersnotattoing #davepickerell #ripdave #whstlebig #burbonwhiskey #bourbon #bourbongram #memorial #bosshog #blackenedwhiskey #metallica #makersmark #americanehiskey #craftwhiskey #instadram #instawhiskey  (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp47o5Ig0d9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ojeodjdsa5xp
