WhistlePig Evicts Troopers, Lists Maple Sugar Shack on Zillow for $4.20M – Maple Old Fashioneds Rejoice!

Bid on the Syrup-Soaked Hideaway and Score Bottle of Barrel-Aged Maple Syrup

SHOREHAM, Vt.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--If you’ve ever dreamed of owning a maple syrup paradise – complete with a fully operational Tiki Bar, panoramic Vermont views, and a whiskey-powered cold plunge – now’s your chance. WhistlePig Whiskey has officially listed its famed Maple Sugar Shack on Zillow offering prospective buyers a chance to claim this syrup-soaked retreat for $4.20 million, just in time for International Waffle Day. After a series of unconventional tenants and property disputes, WhistlePig Whiskey is reclaiming the Maple Sugar Shack – originally secured by the Troopers in 2024 to protect and serve the shrinking maple syrup industry.

With the farmhouse fantasy surrounded by Green Mountain trees, WhistlePig Agent Mortimer Jr. promises the world’s leading independent craft whiskey maker on one side, an endless supply of Vermont Grade-A pure Maple Syrup (with a twist) on the other, and definitely no squatters from the Vermont State Trooper law enforcement agency.

The Troopers’ time in the Sugar Shack wasn’t for nothing after all: They’ve been experimenting with WhistlePig’s secret (and slightly sticky) sauce, it’s Barrel-Aged Maple Syrup. After mixing, matching and a few good chugs, the Troopers have reached the conclusion that sometimes you have to do it the old fashioned way… literally. Opting to enjoy Barrel-Aged Maple Syrup in WhistlePig’s signature Maple Old Fashioned, made with PiggyBack Rye, with waffles receiving an honorable mention.

“We’ve spent plenty of time at the Sugar Shack, and there are definitely some stories hidden, baked and soaked into those walls. We’re not saying we left any mustache wax behind, but if you find some, you’re welcome,” said Jay Chandrasekhar. “Don’t freak out, man, our shenanigans here were cheeky and fun while we built up the syrup supply. We only chugged as much as was strictly necessary to prove we are all that is man the old fashioned way. There’s plenty to stir up with the heavenly hooch that is WhistlePig’s PiggyBack Rye to make a Maple Old Fashioned.”

“At WhistlePig, we don’t just push boundaries, we barrel-age them,” said Distiller and mustache aficionado Mitch Mahar. “The Sugar Shack is equal parts Vermont tradition, craftsmanship and a darn good time. We figured if the Troopers could stake it out for long enough, it was only fair to pass the keys to the next lucky owner, along with all the syrup shenanigans they can handle.”
