CanadianDistilled in Canada and aged in barrels for at least three years. Often, but not always, Canadian whiskies are blends of corn, barley and rye which are distilled and matured separately.
Tasting Notes
"Cornerstone offers an oaky nose, with baking spices and cloves, rye spice, and a light fruitiness. The palate is creamy, and starts soft before offering a more robust rye-spice backbone, along with cherries, vanilla, berries, and red apples. The finish is pleasant and long lasting, offering more baking spices, fruits and oak for a smooth and well-balanced ride from start to finish. "
