Whisky for Us Saanich Single Malt 53%
$91.99
This Whisky For Us release is from an undisclosed distillery in Saanich on Vancouver Island. A little over 4 years old, it matured most of its life in a Moscatel Barrique. 53%
Producer Description
"Named for the beautiful region of its origin, Saanich is a whisky born from a chance encounter. After being denied a barrel from a sought-after Vancouver distillery, a chance opportunity arose; a cask of a Vancouver Island single malt was offered. This 4.5-year-old spirit spent the majority of its life in a Moscatel Barrique, resulting in an explosively bright, fruity, and floral profile—a truly unique expression of Canadian Island whisky.
"As we didn’t purchase this barrel direct from the distillery, we’re not using their name on the label. But there’s only one well known distillery in Saanich on Vancouver Island that’s known for making whisky. To further make things interesting, this cask is supposedly peated, yet we haven’t been able to detect any ourselves. Maybe you will?"

Producer Description
"This release is a wonderfully rare combination of 18yo Ledaig and Tobermory single malts. Take a sip and find yourself standing outside a cottage in the Scottish countryside surrounded by mountains. Smoke billowing from the chimney, you take a bite of an apple and notice the sunlight dancing in a puddle in front of you. Each breath carries a blend of fresh apple and smoky tones, harmoniously merging with the rustic outdoors, enveloping you in a peaceful, pastoral scene."
