Raj Peter Bhakta

Raj Peter Bhakta is the founder of BHAKTA Spirits and WhistlePig Whiskey. Having built the luxury rye whiskey category, Raj is now doing the same, on a grander scale for vintage spirits.

After selling his stake in WhistlePig in 2019, Bhakta embarked on a sabbatical in search of new discoveries in the world of spirits. A twist of fate brought him to Condom, France, where he unearthed – and acquired – a miraculous cellar of ancient Armagnac dating back to 1868.
