Gooderham & Worts Eleven Souls

An exception to the rule that Canadian whiskeys are all basically the same. Baking spice perfectly balanced with a menagerie of sweets. A bit of burn but otherwise smooth finish. One of the best blended Canadian whiskeys out there.

Tasted at Fetz Vancouver. amazing balance of many flavours almond, cherry oak and rye spices really flavourful at the abv am amazing complex whiskey a little more going on than Canadian Rockies 21 year and smooth for 49%

I love Canadian whisky and this is one of the very best. Creme brûlée is an inviting nose, but it hardly hints at the richness of the first taste. Although it seems almost syrupy in its density, the sweetness and spice are in fact perfectly balanced. As the flavour unravels, it’s as nutty, creamy and luscious as a tongue-coating, artery-furring, soul-pleasing banoffee pie - with alcohol! There is literally nothing not to love about this, from the smart blue label to the warm, honeyed finish. Well done G&W!

Delicious, but having tasted it alongside Wiser’s 35 may have been a disservice to enjoying all it has to offer.
