Canadian Club Rye Whisky
750ml & 80 Proof
What is Canadian Club Rye Whisky?
Canadian Club Rye Whisky offers a smooth, mellow flavor profile that belies its storied history as a Prohibition-era favorite. Interestingly, during the 1920s, notorious gangster Al Capone smuggled thousands of cases of Canadian Club across the Detroit River, cementing its reputation as the whisky of choice for those seeking quality spirits during the dry years.
Why do we love Canadian Club Rye Whisky?
Canadian Club Rye Whisky stands out for its unique "blended at birth" process, where the whisky is blended before aging rather than after, resulting in an exceptionally smooth and mellow character. Unlike rum, which is made from sugarcane byproducts, this rye whisky offers a distinctively spicy and slightly fruity flavor profile that shines in classic cocktails like the Manhattan or Old Fashioned.
How do you drink Canadian Club Rye Whisky?
Canadian Club Rye Whisky shines in classic whisky cocktails, but it's equally enjoyable sipped neat or with a splash of water to open up its flavors. This versatile spirit is a year-round choice, pairing wonderfully with hearty comfort foods in colder months and lending itself to refreshing highballs when the weather warms up.
Nose: Light vanilla and caramel notes mingle with subtle rye spice. Hints of oak and dried fruit emerge, along with a touch of nuttiness.
Palate: Smooth and mellow with a gentle warmth. Flavors of toffee and butterscotch lead, followed by rye bread and cinnamon. A slight fruitiness reminiscent of apples and pears adds depth.
Finish: Medium length with lingering warmth. Rye spice becomes more pronounced, balanced by sweet oak and a hint of black pepper. Fades with a pleasant dryness and a subtle maple sweetness.
Canadian Club Rye Whisky is crafted using a unique "barrel blending" process, where different styles of whisky are aged separately in oak barrels before being blended together prior to bottling. This method allows the master blender to carefully control the flavor profile, ensuring consistency and complexity in every batch while showcasing the spicy character of rye grain alongside the smooth, mellow notes typical of Canadian whisky.
