WhistlePig The Boss Hog VIII Lapulapu’s Pacific is the 8th edition in WhistlePig's The Boss Hog series. Lapulapu was a ruler of the Philippine island of Mactan who, in 1521, defeated Ferdinand Magellan and ended his circumnavigation of the globe. As a follow-up to last year's The Boss Hog VII: Magellan's Atlantic, this continues WhistlePig's exploration theme and marks the fifth straight year of experimenting with really unique barrel finishes from around the world.
