About WhistlePig
In 2007, Raj Bhakta purchased a farm in Shoreham, Vermont and founded WhistlePig in 2008. The company opened their distillery on the 500-acre farm in 2015 and Bhakta retired from the business in 2017. BDT Capital partners partnered with WhistlePig who have emerged as an ultra-premium luxury American whiskey.
