Megawatt Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 This brand is fast becoming one of my favourites. Their limited-edition Dissertation bottling is one of the finest whiskies I've tasted, and I recently cracked a bottle of their Canada One Fifty blend. Now I see they have two new whiskies hitting the shelves in Ontario: Triple Cask Rye, and Fifteen Year Old. I would also recommend Legacy and Double Still Rye. I understand they have some different bottlings in the US. Anyone care to comment on these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
portwood Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 you missed one: they are also releasing a 35 year old with the Wiser's label ... and in the same family: Lot no cask strength 12 year old Gooderham & Worts 17 year old https://torontowhiskysociety.ca/2017/08/30/northern-border-collection-tasting-event-at-the-drake-devonshire/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Pike Creek is also appealing, though I generally find their whisky a little too subtle. On 9/18/2017 at 8:17 PM, portwood said: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoustonNit Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 I've heard good things about the lot 40 rye. The cask strength at 12 years for $70CAD. I might need to border jump when I get back home to get one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ten years too late to the higher strength/age stated party (unfortunately I didn't say "no additives", "no added colour"*, "no chill filtration") but going in the right direction and better late than never. Kudos to Don Livermore & Corby's for seeing the light. *possible they haven't taken advantage of the 1/11 rule but we can't be sure since they have not committed to say it on the label.

I think it will be another ten years before we start seeing "colouring-free" and "non-chillfiltered" on Canadian labels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
