A mash of 25% wheat and 75% rye bottled at 50.5% after maturing in ex-Bourbon & New Amercian Oak casks.
Producer Description
"This isn’t just rye whisky—it’s Canada’s original Wheated Rye. Crafted by our whisky-makers to be the ultimate sipping rye, the 25% wheat content lowers you into a soft, cloud of vanilla marshmallow fluff, allowing the perfect sweet balance to the warm pepper and baking spice of rye grain.
"Aged in a mix of ex-bourbon and new American oak casks, each batch has been meticulously blended to deliver layers of charred oak, toasted sugar, and crème brûlée sweetness."

Made from Triticale grown in Lars' own fields! Lars is the proprieter of Pivot spirits, and produces most of the whisky he makes from very own grain. Bottled at 46%.
Producer Description
"Triticale is the result of crossing wheat and rye. We appreciate the impressive yields that the latest Triticale varieties deliver on our irrigation farm. What's even more delightful is the unique flavors that Triticale imparts to our whisky! The sweetness of wheat and the spiciness of rye are beautifully complemented by smooth tones of honey, fruit, and vanilla."
About Pivot Spirits
Pivot Spirits was founded in 2018 and resides in Rolling Hills, Alberta — about a 30-minute drive south of Brooks. If you zoom in on Rolling Hills from a satellite image on Google Maps you will see where the name Pivot Spirits comes from: all the fields in the area have the tell-tail rounded and circular shape of pivot irrigation. The distillery is co-owned by Lars Hirsch and Rachelle Fiset. Lars is an irrigation farmer with fields just across the roads from the distillery and the distiller as well. Just about all the grain used at Pivot Spirits uses for making Whisky, Gin, and other spirits comes from his fields. The only exception to this is when Lars uses corn, which he gets from his neighbours. Pivot Spirits does not malt or roast any of the grains it uses — it comes directly from the field, is ground down, and made into a mash.

100% BC Rye whisky initially matured in virgin oak and finished in PX Sherry casks. 50%
Producer Description
"First this 100% B.C. rye grain whisky spent its first few years in new American oak casks. Second, and only once the whisky is already matured, it is transferred to once used Pedro Ximenez sherry casks. These freshly emptied casks are shipped directly from Spain. They come with a complimentary few litres of Sherry wine. Not only is this wine an assurance of cask quality, but we enjoy using it in our lounge cocktails! Finally, we taste the whisky in the casks, only bottling once we’ve achieved the flavour we are looking for."

This whisky shows a style that more big brand Canadian Whiskies should emulate. It is rich and full of flavour, yet still smooth and easy drinking in style. It is incredibly well-crafted, making a great gift for that relative who you really feel needs to move on from the bog-standard Gibson's or Crown or R&R and try something more exciting. Distilled, matured and bottled at 45.3% by Canmore's Wild Life Distillery.
