One of the best whiskeys no let’s say Spirits for under $30 cad! You have something better let me know :) Some rate good whiskey by smoothness and blandness if that’s you this probably would rate this low but 1 give me a break hate seeing 1’s on distiller hope they erase outliers...anyways this is thick mouth coating and tastes rich and decadent with flavours of chocolate, spice, vanilla and corn, there is a little musty note but really delicious and yes it burns a little but it is 43% so add a little water and it gets sweeter and smoother excellent whiskey not much I would buy until $70 and that would be wisers 18 or Canadian Rockies 21 maybe bear face at $39 :)
