Forty Creek Copper Pot Reserve

My Staple Canadian Whisky Forty Creek Copper Pot Reserve

This whisky is an offering from Forty Creek with a bit bigger flavour in mind - and they even put it in the bottle at 43%. A stock of carefully selected aged single grain rye, malt, and corn whiskies is…

Forty Creek Barrel Select

Incredible Value; Wonderful Nose Forty Creek Barrel Select

Since almost every review (some of my own included!) of Forty Creek seems to go into their unique "meritage" process, I will spare the reader this time. However, a few unique things about Forty Creek:…

Forty Creek Canada Gold

Decent Budget Mixer Forty Creek Canada Gold

This whisky is produced by Forty Creek in Grimsby, Ontario, and, really, it is a way for them to stretch out their barrels - it holds well to house style and allows them to produce a very budget friendly…

Royal Canadian Small Batch

Nice subtlety Royal Canadian Small Batch

First of all, the colour of the bottling is really red - it's almost disturbing. It to me seems beyond caramel colouring and into wine or port cask finishes, which don't seem to underlie the flavour in…

Canadian Club 20 Year Old

Remind anyone else of a rum? Canadian Club 20 Year Old

This whisky is a "limited" release, which really means that it is produced in batches as it is a pretty regular offering from CC. It's the same recipe as the standard "Canadian Club", but it is just in…

Canadian Club Sherry Cask

Batch C12-047 Canadian Club Sherry Cask

This whisky comes in at 41.3%, a bit higher than the standard Canadian 40%. It is aged about 6 years, then finished for 2 years in Spanish Sherry Casks. As with all Canadian Club whiskies, it is "Barrel…

Canadian Club Classic 12 Year Old

Small Batch batch C12-054 Canadian Club Classic 12 Year Old

This whisky, at times, seems to be quite hit and miss. Some people really seem to like it, and some don't seem to care for it much at all. Recently rebranded to try to give more information and attract…

Canadian Club Reserve (9 Year Old)

Canadian Club Reserve Canadian Club Reserve (9 Year Old)

Rating whisky is hard work, both in defining how to assign a grade to the overall whisky (which usually consists of defining subcomponents of the score and weighting them) and, as reviews start, bench…

Canadian Club

Canadian Club Premium Canadian Club

This is the Canadian version of the standard bottling - I believe the US "Canadian Club" is a bit different. Intriguing whisky - a bit earthy, dank, spicy, and floral on both the nose and the palate,…
