Reviewed! King’s Lock Craft Distillery WhiskyJack Rye with Dan & Ryan
From just outside Prescott, here’s King’s Lock Craft Distillery‘s WhiskyJack Rye. 100% rye, same as their Prescott White Rye. “Aged on oak”, which doesn’t necessarily conjure images of barrels. If […]

The second entry in our month of Tomintoul, we have the 16y. There’s… not too much to say that we didn’t cover last time, it’s the same whisky, just from […]
Tomintoul Glenlivet 10y with Dan & Goran
Tomintoul Glenlivet 10y. So.. which is it? It appears to be a Tomintoul, as Tomintoul’s website calls all their whiskies Glenlivet Speyside. The Distillery is the Tomintoul-Glenlivet distillery, but it’s […]

Saskatoon Sessions: Monkey Shoulder
Monkey Shoulder Blended Malt Whisky. Named for an old whiskying injury, apparently. Which makes sense because this was kind of painful to drink. A blended malt means this is a […]
Saskatoon Sessions: Ardbeg Uigeadail
Ardbeg Uigeadail – It’s pronounced oog-a-dal, because that’s what you say when you drink it. This is a Proper Islay – full bore smoke and fire, good for a […]

High River Canadian Whisky with Davey
What do you get when you bottle Canadian whisky in Kentucky? Mediocre whisky. To be fair, the back-and-forth shipping of High River is probably not this whisky’s major fault. That […]
Strathisla 12y Single Malt Scotch with Dan
Here’s one we’d been missing for a while, one that had escaped the LCBO before we had a chance to try it. Good old Cloud 9 in Alberta comes through […]
