Canadian Whiskey
View Full Description [+ Read More]
Canadian whiskey is a blended spirits category produced across Canada's prairie provinces and Ontario, where strict regulations require aging in wooden barrels for a minimum of three years and blending of multiple grain distillates, typically including a high-rye component. The category spans a wide flavor range, from Crown Royal's fruit-forward flavored expressions like Blackberry, Peach, and Salted Caramel to the drier, cereal-driven character of Alberta Rye's Cask Strength at 63.7% ABV. Within Crown Royal's range alone, the distance between an approachable flavored whisky and the XR Extra Rare or Cask 16 - both finished in select barrels with extended aging - represents the full breadth the category can achieve across price points and production intent.
