Canadian Club Barley Batch
$51.99
Canadian Club is pushing the boundaries of the style we know (and occasionally love) as Canadian whisky. Barley Batch is a 2018 expression released to commemorate the 160th birthday of the brand, and it does so in a very unique style. Instead of simply releasing a slightly older version of their standard fair (or some other such shortcut), CC has given us a very singular expression. Most Canadian whisky is comprised of corn. And if we're lucky...maybe some rye. But imagine what you'd have if you took that sweet and approachable Canadian spirit and married it to some well-matured malted barley whisky? Well...you'd have Barley Batch. Well worth nabbing before it disappears. Especially at this price.
In the mix for this special release: 5 year old Canadian Club from Hiram Walker Distillery of Windsor, Ontario PLUS 6 year old malted barley whisky from Alberta Distillers of Calgary, Alberta.

Canadian Club has a long and storied history, just like the Hiram Walker Distillery that makes it. It was the most sold bottle on the black market in the United States during prohibition. Canadian Club is the only Distiller outside of the United Kingdom to be awarded a Royal Warrant. The Canadian Club brand is owned by Beam Suntory. Just about all Canadian Club is distilled at Hiram Walker Distillery, which is owned by Pernod Ricard.

Forty Creek Foxheart
$47.99
This whisky from Ontario's Forty Creek takes their whisky and adds a small amount of 12-year-old Caribbean Rum (possibly Appletons since both it and Forty Creek are owned by Campari Group). The result is bottled at 40%.
On a side note: what happened to the good ol' days of Forty Creek bottling most releases at 43%? That may seem like a low bar now, but this 40% is even lower...
Lot 40 Dark Oak 100% Rye
$59.99

It is finished in virgin American oak barrels with a #4 char – which is what many American Rye and Bourbon whiskies are matured in. After this, the resulting whisky is bottled at 48%.
