Whisky Club 1 - Rethinking Canadian Whisky

Canadian whisky is often known for its smooth, approachable character—but there is far more beneath

the surface. Built on a tradition of blending and innovation, Canadian distillers work with a variety of
grains—corn, rye, wheat, and barley—each contributing different layers of flavour.

In this tasting, we explore the full spectrum of Canadian whisky, from bold, highproof expressions to
elegant, easydrinking styles. Expect a journey through spice, subtle sweetness, fruit, and oak—revealing
how Canada’s unique approach to whisky-making creates spirits that are versatile, complex, and often
misunderstood.

Whether you’re new to whisky or a seasoned enthusiast, this session will challenge the idea that
Canadian whisky is simply “smooth”—and instead showcase its depth, diversity, and evolving premium
character.
