Canada
View Full Description [+ Read More]
Canada is home to a long tradition of Canadian whisky production, with grain-forward blends and rye-based expressions defining the country's signature spirit style. The category spans a wide range, from fruit-infused and flavored whiskies to aged, cask-strength releases. Crown Royal, distilled in Gimli, Manitoba, anchors much of the category, producing everything from the flavored Blackberry, Peach, and Salted Caramel expressions to the more contemplative Reserve and Cask 16, which is finished in Cognac casks. The XR Extra Rare pays tribute to the historic Waterloo distillery. Alberta Rye represents a different tradition, with its limited-edition Cask Strength expression bottled at 63.7% ABV and built on a high-rye mash bill that showcases the bold, grain-driven character central to Alberta distilling heritage.
