Bottled at 67%, a nod to Canadian Confederation, this 24 year old whisky is from a 2001 vintage parcel of Canadian Corn Whisky from Refill Sherry.
Sam Simmons, the Head of Whisky at Atom Brands (including Master of Malt), is a proud Canadian. He released this for Canada Day in the UK, but it is only arriving on our fair shores now!
“Canada has a long history of whisky-making and Canadian companies played a pivotal role in the history of Scotch whisky in the 20th century, but this whisky is a reaction to a particular moment in our history: Now."
"The words of a particular global leader have shocked many, scared no one, and only strengthened Canadian pride and bonds with its global community. This is just a modest gesture to display that a people, like a whisky, needn’t be big, loud and aggressive to be strong and enviable."

That Boutique-y Whisky Company (TBWC) is part of the Atom Group, which also owns the UK retailer Master of Malt and a number of other subsidiaries. They are a dynamic and innovative firm, who by example invented the Whisky Advent Calendar concept. Established in 2012, TBWC is famous for its playful and colourful labels, which often feature prominent whisky industry figures, tell a story, and or elude to an inside joke. The labels are typically laced with hidden elements and "Easter Eggs."
TBWC bottles whiskies from around the world, though the bulk of their offerings are of Scottish origin. Most of their offerings are small-batch releases, Blended Malts, and Blends. Their "Head of Whisky" is Canadian Sam Simmons.
We are big fans of not only their whimsical labels but also the consistently high standard of liquid they bottle.
