Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a bourbon or a Canadian whiskey?

Technically it's classified as a Canadian Whiskey due to where it was aged, but it's distilled from a wheated bourbon mash bill — making it a unique hybrid that appeals strongly to bourbon enthusiasts.

Why does cold-climate aging matter?

In cold Canadian warehouses, the wood expands and contracts far less than in warmer climates, resulting in a slower, gentler extraction from the barrel. This produces a thick, buttery body without the heavy oak and lumber notes that can dominate very old bourbons aged in warmer conditions.

How should I serve it?

Best enjoyed neat to appreciate its unique cold-climate character. A small drop of water can open up additional layers of caramel and grain sweetness.
