Producer Description

"Lars mashed this ancient grain with the hull on. Though a messy process, the result is a taste that brings your palate to life with smooth floral notes and flavours reminiscent of shortbread cookies! This rare grain distillation is distinct and special, making it a welcome addition to any whisky enthusiast's cabinet."

About Pivot Spirits

Pivot Spirits was founded in 2018 and resides in Rolling Hills, Alberta — about a 30-minute drive south of Brooks. If you zoom in on Rolling Hills from a satellite image on Google Maps you will see where the name Pivot Spirits comes from: all the fields in the area have the tell-tail rounded and circular shape of pivot irrigation. The distillery is co-owned by Lars Hirsch and Rachelle Fiset. Lars is an irrigation farmer with fields just across the roads from the distillery and the distiller as well. Just about all the grain used at Pivot Spirits uses for making Whisky, Gin, and other spirits comes from his fields. The only exception to this is when Lars uses corn, which he gets from his neighbours. Pivot Spirits does not malt or roast any of the grains it uses — it comes directly from the field, is ground down, and made into a mash.

Producer Description

"Jason’s passion for whisky lies in the journey from grain to glass, where slow craftsmanship and traditional methods shape its character. This approach results in a whisky that beautifully marries natural elements with the artistry of its maker. Crafted in Sooke, British Columbia, using BC grain, this whisky’s mash bill of rye, wheat, and malted barley is distilled in small batches and aged for at least three years in new American white oak barrels."
