Tasting Notes
"This Canadian whisky stacks its cards in favor of consistency. It’s got spicy rye, sweet caramels and fresh wood all calculated to work together without overwhelming the palate. The creamy sweetness owes a lot to vanilla and dark fruits such as prunes and cherries. A spice attack in the middle of the palate is set afire by hot pepper. The wood is pronounced at the back of palate and into the finish, but quickly vanishes with citrus zest. A pleasant sipping whisky at a budget price."
