Wiser's 35 Year - 2018 Edition

This item is archived.

The latest 35 year old offering from Wiser's has landed! We don't expect this one to last long either. While the producer's tasting notes are a little sparse - orange, honeycomb, oak and dried fruit - rest assured you'll still find all those hallmarks of great mature Canadian whisky:dunnage warehouses with earthen floors, fresh eucalyptus, split lumber and red berry. A treat of a whisky, and one that really is in a league of its own. 50% abv!

This is the second edition of the 35-year-old Wiser’s. The first was comprised of mostly Corn Whisky aged in ex-bourbon barrels with a small amount of Rye Whisky that spent time in Virgin Oak Casks.

In theory, this could be similar in style to the Canadian Club 40 and 41 year old, just younger and with Rye Whisky added. All of the whisky for both the Wiser’s and Canadian Club bottles would have been distilled at Hiram Walker. They may have been aging away at warehouses in different areas though.
 

94pts Davin de Kergommeaux (Whisky Advocate): “Teasing out the threads of this perfectly woven fabric takes time. And what an enjoyable time it is! Big whisky with no dominant notes, but enticing suggestions of pine pitch, butterscotch, barley sugars, freshwater plants, sandalwood, cream, brisk peppery spices, sweetish baking spices, clean wood with vague tannins, and gorgeous orange bitters late in the finish. Apricots, hard peaches, and echoes of raspberries throughout.”
