Signal Hill Canadian Whisky
$45.99
Signal Hill Whisky is a bit of a mystery. There are a few things around the internet saying that it is distilled in Newfoundland, but more delving reveals that it is likely created from whisky sourced from one distillery (possibly the Hiram Walker Distillery of Windsor, Ontario) or more, then blended and bottled in Newfoundland. It may or may not be a brand owned by a company that also makes Crystal Head Vodka, which in turn is partially owned by Dan Aykroyd. Make sense?
Bottled at 40% ABV. OR SO THEY SAY.
Just kidding. We are fairly certain at least that part of the label can be trusted.
Producer Description
"Signal Hill Whisky is made from two types of grain. The corn whisky is double distilled through a two-column still to produce a light and smooth characteristic. The barley whisky is pot distilled to bring out a subtle bready, nutty or malt flavour. Multiple layers of flavour are preserved through non-chill filtration, resulting in a fuller mouthfeel and smoother finish."

Redbreast 21 Year Irish Whiskey
$439.99
One of the oldest single pot or pure pot still Irish whiskey to have come to Canada to date. Love the bottling strength, 46%, some of the better known Scottish distilleries could take a page from this book. The reviews are impressive, 96pts Whisky Advocate Magazine, I smell a pot still tasting coming! Matured 21 years in a combination of Ex-Bourbon and 1st fill Ex-Sherry Oloroso casks.
What is Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey you ask? It is whiskey made using a combination of malted and unmalted barley. Why do this you ask? Why, to dodge unfair taxation, of course! The Malt Tax came into being in Ireland for a short time starting in 1785, enforced by the (insert expletive said in your best Irish accent here) English. The Irish, being Irish, decided that they didn't need to use malted barley for the entirety of the mash used to distill whiskey and started adding portions of unmalted barley. Necessity being the mother of invention, this eventually became a legitimate style of whiskey-making that is now not just celebrated but codified into law in Ireland with the Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey classification.
Producer Description
"Using a style of Pot Still whiskey reflective of the Midleton Distillery tradition, Redbreast 21 represents the ultimate expression of Redbreast Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey. The 21 year ageing process introduces new levels of depth, flavour and taste, creating a complex and rewarding whiskey. Abundantly aromatic and fruitful, and produced in very limited quantities, this 21 year old Redbreast is a joy to behold in each and every bottle."
