The flagship Whisky from Alberta Distillers, which itself was founded in 1946. Alberta Premium has been a ubiquitous bottle in this province and others since it was first launched back in 1958. Made right here in Calgary, Alberta, this 100% Rye is priced like a bar rail whisky but is also quite a good whisky. It is a good introduction to what Alberta Distillers is capable of. 40%.

A batch of Alberta Premium Rye selected and blended from consecutive vintages between 2001 and 2010.
No false modesty, we produce the best rye in the world. Thankfully, Alberta Distillers is starting to catch on to what they have. Hopefully they continue to release these neat expressions they've been giving us in more recent years.

An Eau Claire whisky dedicated to/inspired by 'the greatest outdoor show on earth.' I kinda thought that was Andrew mowing the lawn without a shirt on, but hey... what do I know?
Eau Claire has called this whisky their 'nod to our western heritage.' Easy-drinking on its own, versatile enough to mix, and just a bit 'rugged' (their word). Neat little whisky.

Producer Description
"A true cowboy-forward whisky with a spicy rye kick. Stampede Rye Whisky is made from the finest ingredients – glacier-fed water, Alberta-grown rye, finished in oak barrels – and inspired by the world’s greatest celebration of the West, the Calgary Stampede. True to ranch life, Stampede Whisky is a no-nonsense easy-sipper you can always depend on."

A new Rye from Alberta Distillers! With no press release or information or web page on the bottle to be found. What we can tell you is that it carries a stated age of 9 Years Old, and is made from 100% Rye Grain. Oh, and it is bottled at 45% ABV.
The back label does mention three barrel types used, but does not specify which types. It is from ADL, so the liquid should be good. Plus, the price is very reasonable if the quality is there.
If only this small, plucky Calgary Distillery was owned by a large spirits conglomerate that could afford to throw some money into marketing and entice us on what makes this bottle special... Sure, the same company owns a distillery on Islay that pointlessly co-brands some of their high-end single malts with a luxury car brand because they don't see the whisky as premium enough to sell on its own. That is just fine, but throwing a bit of a spotlight on one of the best rye distilleries in the world would be a bridge too far!
