Forty Creek Confederation Oak Reserve

A light, sweet whisky with a bit of rye pepper to keep you interested. I love the story of this whisky, and wish it came together a bit better. The nose is slow to develop but vanilla and wood come out. the taste is sweet corn and very smooth on the tongue. Thankfully there is is some balance with pepper or deeper wood. I think it is the finish that leaves me confused. It seems to burn and the leave an almost bitter taste. Good over all, just not as great as it's story.

Light, complex, vanilla, light florals and honey

Good sweet, smooth. Honeyed oak, easy on the palate. Gets 5 as its the best Canadian whisky I've had.

Superb! 4.5/5 detracting only for burn. Vanilla, maple, butterscotch sweetness. Oak and hints of anise on finish.

Big vanilla and leather on nose and palate; also get some butterscotch sweetness and rye spice; light to medium body, easy, shortish finish.
