Shenk's Homestead Bourbon Whiskey
$172.79
Limit 1 per customer.
From Thr Producer
"Shenk’s is a Sour Mash Whiskey made with a substantial amount of rye. Following the success of the 2019 and 2020 releases where some Chinquapin (Quercus muehlenbergii) oak barrels were used during maturation, the 2021 release also includes use of this oak. The wood has been naturally air dried and seasoned for over three years and the Chinquapin oak has been charred at various char levels for the aging of some of the whiskey. This year’s release has resulted in a balanced whiskey with an elegant body and finish."
Bomberger's Declaration Bourbon
$184.49
From The Producer
"Bomberger’s Declaration Distillery Bourbon honors the legacy of the former distillery known as Bomberger’s in the 1800’s and later as Michter’s in the 20th Century. Please join us in toasting and celebrating American Whiskey History with this outstanding small batch 108 proof Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey.
The 2021 release of Bomberger’s is a robust Kentucky Straight Bourbon at 108 proof with a broad spectrum of distinctively rich characters. For the aging of this release, our maturation team chose special barrels, some of which were made from Chinquapin (Quercus muehlenbergii) oak that has been naturally air dried for over 3 years. While similar barrels were used in the 2019 and 2020 releases of Bomberger’s, this year our production team opted to accentuate rich characters and depth by adjusting the char levels of the Chinquapin oak barrels thereby resulting in a wonderfully distinctive Kentucky straight bourbon.

Angel's Envy Bourbon
$73.79
At long last Angel's Envy Bourbon has finally arrived in Alberta. Finished in Port Casks before bottling at 43.3%.
Producer Description
“Angel’s Envy Kentucky Straight Bourbon is finished in port wine casks for an award-winning spirit. We guide each batch’s conditioning, blending our handcrafted bourbon in small batches of 8 to 12 barrels at a time. It’s typically aged for up to 6 years. While we lose about 5% of the spirit each year to evaporation, or “the Angel’s Share,” what’s left behind after we’re done is truly worthy of envy.
Once it’s deemed ready, we finish our bourbon in ruby port wine casks, which adds subtly distinct flavor nuances that enhance the whiskey without challenging it. Our port finishing process lasts between three to six months, depending on taste. We use 60-gallon ruby port barrels made from French oak and imported directly from Portugal. This creates a whiskey of unprecedented smoothness, sweetness and balance.”
Lot 40 Dark Oak 100% Rye
$58.49
This is an amped-up version of the regular Lot 40 made at the Hiram Walker Distillery in Windsor, Ontario. Lot 40 itself is one of the best 100% Rye Whiskies made in Canada. What makes it different? It is finished in virgin American oak barrels with a #4 char – which is what many American Rye and Bourbon whiskies are matured in. After this, the resulting whisky is bottled at 48%.
True Wild Roper's Hold 8 Yr Straight Rye
$109.79
Roper's Hold is a Blended Whisky produced by our friends at True Wild, a new Distillery and Restaurant in Calgary. It will be 2030 before they have a whisky of their own, but in the interim they have sourced whiskies to bottle, giving an indication of where they are going as a producer.
Bottled at 47%
Producer Description
"Our “First Release” journey began with our co-founder, Bryce Parsons uncovering a collection of exceptional 8-year-old straight rye whiskies. Blended from three sources, two of these distilleries from the Pacific Northwest have since closed their doors, making this blend a rare tribute to craftsmanship and history.
But finding the barrels was just the beginning. Bryce brought them to Canada and began the meticulous process of blending these remarkable ryes, each with its own distinct character. To complete the transformation, the blend was finished in red wine barrels from the renowned Black Hills Estate Winery in the Okanagan Valley, infusing the whisky with layers of rich fruit and velvety tannins."

58 year old North British, distilled in 1962, matured in a Refill ex-Bourbon Hogshead, and bottled at 42.7%. Limit 1 Per Customer!
Glenfiddich 12 Year
$38.69
Lending its name to the largest selling single malt in the world, Glenfiddich is said to have paved the way after WWII by bucking the trend and not supplying to blenders owned by larger conglomerates. Vision and persistence paid off, and as luck would have it, its style is very easily drinkable and appeals to a wide range. Traditionally light, smooth, with a hint of fruitiness.
Glenfarclas 1963 Cask J & G Grant
$879.29
Tasting note by George S. Grant (Brand Ambassador): A big heavy-sherried whisky; great if you like them big and powerful. It is more than 40 years old but has lost none of its appeal. Still strong but not overpowering. Some vanilla and citrus present at the back of your mouth – almost like the caramelized fruit you'd find in a fruit cake. A wonderful long finish sitting heavily at the back of your mouth. Sherry flavours and fruit cake wonderfully balanced.
