Producer Description
"Rye is the quintessential Canadian Whisky grain. This flavour forward grain is often hidden and underrepresented in the big brand rye whiskies on the market. Wild Life Rye Whisky on the other hand, does not shy away from flavour. This spirit shows wonderful notes of nutmeg, fig, green grass and spice notes. This is Alberta Craft Whisky at its finest, and we are pleased to share it with you!"

Wild Life gin is produced by Wild Life distillery in the scenic mountain town of Canmore. "The obvious overproof of 43.3% abv. allows the nose & body of the gin to stand up in a martini or a cocktail without getting lost in solution."
From the Producer: "Wild Life Gin embodies balance. Juniper and citrus notes on the nose: these pop right out of the glass. Fresh lemon and blood orange lead the way, with classic juniper and coriander close behind. Then the unmistakeable texture of our grain base spirit shines through the middle palate. The finishing spices come through at the end in the back of the mouth completing the trio:Nose, body, finish: check, check & check."
About Wild Life Distillery: "What does it mean to be a craft distillery? At Wild Life Distillery (WLD), our approach to producing great craft spirits is set on a foundation of quality and authenticity. We use our distillery as the medium to connect these values to everything that we do: the clean mountain water we use; the local grain we source; the small batch sizes we produce; our attention to detail; and the community of like-minded individuals that surrounds us, are all a part of the WLD process.

This Rye Whisky from Finland is made from 100% malted rye. It is bottled at 47.2%.
People from Finland seem to know how to live the good life. We should all have a sauna in our backyard to dive into when it is fridged and snowing in the middle of winter. We should also have some good Rye Whisky to take in with us - and that is where Kyro Rye comes in. Kyro Distillery resides in Isokyrö, Finland. The distillery was founded by a group of friends that were pondering the meaning of life and bemoaning the lack of Finnish Rye Whisky one day in - you guessed it - a sauna. They decided to do something about it, and Kyro was born.
