LOT 40 DARK OAK CANADIAN WHISKY Canadian Alc 48%

Canadian whisky is known for being a little bit lighter than bourbon and many have spicy notes thanks to a portion of rye in the mash bill. However, if you choose options that have extended oak aging, they have more caramel and vanilla notes, just like bourbon. The oak aging gives it a rounder and smoother mouth feel as well. Consider Lot 40 Dark Oak, which is finished in heavily charred oak barrels, giving it flavours of honey, vanilla and toasted sugar. Another option is Bearface Triple Oak, which is aged for seven years in old bourbon casks, followed by French red wine barrels and then finished in Hungarian oak (hence the name triple oak). All of this time in oak gives it notes of brown sugar, crème brûlée and honey — similar to the bourbons you’ve grown to know and love. SO YOU LIKE BOURBON? Give Canadian whisky a try!
