Ben & Jerry’s Teams With WhistlePig For Whiskey-Spiked Ice Cream

Indulge yourself.

Ben & Jerry’s teamed with their neighbor, WhistlePig Distillery, for a new and very tasty-sounding flavor: Topped Whiskey Biz Ice Cream. Once you know that WhistlePig already has a tasting room near B&J’s factory home in bucolic Waterbury, Vermont, this is a partnership that just makes sense. 

Even in the heart of winter in the Northeast, this collab sounds irresistible. According to the ice cream makers, it consists of “a brown butter bourbon ice cream with blonde brownies and whiskey caramel swirls topped with white chocolatey ganache and white fudge chunks.”

The key ingredient? WhistlePig’s 6-year-old PiggyBack Rye has been blended into the caramel.

In an Instagram post announcing the product, WhistlePig writes that “We’re lucky to have incredibly innovative neighbors like @benandjerrys who love to collaborate as much as we do. We’re honored to be able to announce our partnership on one of their new ‘Topped’ flavors…”

Ben & Jerry’s announced the “Topped” line at the end of January, writing that there is a “Topped flavor for every fan — whether your jam is fruit, peanut butter, caramel or mint – and each is perfectly paired with a generous and luxurious layer of chocolatey ganache on top.”
