True Wild Roper's Hold 8 Yr Straight Rye
$121.99
Roper's Hold is a Blended Whisky produced by our friends at True Wild, a new Distillery and Restaurant in Calgary. It will be 2030 before they have a whisky of their own, but in the interim they have sourced whiskies to bottle, giving an indication of where they are going as a producer.
Bottled at 47%
Producer Description
"Roper’s Hold is a celebration of artistry in spirits. Similar to painting, the aging and blending of these collected whiskies is what makes each of them desirable as a unique expression of the spirit and cask. Each blend’s ephemeral existence further amplifies its appeal. No matter who you are, you must get it while you can. For every label in this brand, nothing will ever be like it again. Compelling. Distinct. Creative. Complex."

Stillhead Sherry Cask Rye Whisky 50%
$87.99
100% BC Rye whisky initially matured in virgin oak and finished in PX Sherry casks. 50%
Producer Description
"First this 100% B.C. rye grain whisky spent its first few years in new American oak casks. Second, and only once the whisky is already matured, it is transferred to once used Pedro Ximenez sherry casks. These freshly emptied casks are shipped directly from Spain. They come with a complimentary few litres of Sherry wine. Not only is this wine an assurance of cask quality, but we enjoy using it in our lounge cocktails! Finally, we taste the whisky in the casks, only bottling once we’ve achieved the flavour we are looking for."

New Harbour Distillery Bushveld Whiskey
$61.99
From the Producer
"Smoked single grain, double-distilled, distinctly bushveld.
Bushveld Whisky offers an aromatic escape to the South African bushveld. The sweet, honeyed aromas are wrapped up in light smokiness from Kameeldoring-smoked casks. We use only the best of single estate grain whisky.
We do double distillation on a potstill for added smoothness before being matured in American oak, ex-bourbon casks. After three years, we finish it off in Kameeldoring-smoked barrels to achieve a signature bushveld edge. Transport yourself to the bushveld with the unique aromas of light smouldering embers, vegetal honey, butterscotch, and toffee."

The Maligne Range Tekarra Whisky
$119.99
This whisky first appeared in our 2023 KWM Whisky Calendar, on Day 16. Here is Evan's write-up on the whisky.
You can view a video of Andrew and Bryce talking about the Maligne Range here.
The first core release from the Maligne Range, Tekarra is an unapologetically Canadian whisky, made partially from an Imperial Porter mashbill with Demerara sugar, matured in First Fill ex-Bourbon and Virgin American Oak casks before bottling at 48%.
The whisky was distilled at Last Best Brewing & Distilling in Calgary, though in time the brand's spiritual home will be the Maligne Distillery under construction in Jasper.
Producer Description
"Named after Mount Tekarra in Jasper National Park, this is a whisky of unique depth, with a bold 48% abv. It features a unique grain bill inspired by Imperial Porter (a beer style) that uses a masterful selection of malts - superior pale, crystal, dark crystal, chocolate, and midnight wheat. Rooted in the Canadian one-eleventh rule, Tekarra artfully combines malted barley and the unique addition of Demerara, creating a cascade of flavours."
About The Maligne Range
"The Maligne Range is an independent Canadian malt whisky-maker and blender. We distill small batch whiskies that are the vital essence of our expressions. These highly-flavoured whiskies from unique grain bills are the character actors on our whisky stage. We allow them to age in oak casks for a minimum of 5 years, affected by the capricious Alberta climate. We then blend with an ensemble cast of blending whiskies – some we distill, others are collaborations with renowned Canadian distilleries. The result is a range of Canadian whiskies that blaze new trails into the remote Western Canadian wilderness of possibility.
"The Maligne Range is the result of decades of experience brewing some of Western Canada’s best craft beers. The people who created Jasper Brewing, Banff Ave Brewing, Last Best Brewing & Distilling, and Campio Brewing have built on their experience and passion for craft spirits with this uniquely Canadian whisky brand. Like those breweries, The Maligne Range aspires to become a community cornerstone through the celebration of the craft of making Canadian whisky.
"In late-spring 2024 we will be inviting visitors to our new home in Jasper. The Maligne Range experience centre will be a celebration of Canadian whisky and elevated dining with a unique Jasper twist. Set against the spectacular backdrop of the Athabasca Valley, our guests will discover the full Maligne Range of products including house exclusives, curated cocktails and gastronomy that complete the experience."
