The second annual partnership between the renowned whiskey distillery WhistlePig and the world of F1 has resulted in a unique release that stands out not only for its taste but for its unconventional aging process. The reason for this one-of-a-kind finish is due to the involvement of Stake F1 Team Kick Sauber driver, Valtteri Bottas, who also happens to own his own gin brand, Oath Gin.
The first collaboration between WhistlePig and Formula 1 was released a year ago and introduced a rye whiskey flavored with lychee and oolong tea. In that release, some of the barrels underwent an unusual process where they were exposed to G-forces in the Alfa Romeo team’s wind tunnel in Switzerland.
