Cadenhead Authentic Speyside 27 Year
$334.99
This 27 year old single malt was bottled at the perilously low cask strength of 40.2%, after maturing in a Bourbon Hogshead. From the confusingly named Speyside Distillery, Cadenheads doubled down on that by naming it Speyside-Glenlivet... that in itself is a whole thing!
Craigellachie 37 Year
$1,449.99
Bottled at 37 years and 46.5% from ex-Bourbon casks. This official release has come to Canada, years after it was released in the rest of the world, but crucially, at 1/4 the price is selling in the rest of the world. 91.14pts Whiskybase & 92pts Whisk Fun
Kilchoman Maury Cask Matured 2026
$124.99
This Kilchoman was fully matured in Maury AOC sweet wine casks from Roussillon in France, bottled at 50%.
Producer Description & Tasting Note
"The Maury Cask Matured limited edition is not a finish, the whisky was aged for the full term of its maturation in ex-Maury fortified wine casks. Maury is a sweet, fortified wine from the Roussillon region of southern France, made primarily from Grenache noir grapes. The time the whisky has spent maturing in these wine casks, has added layers of dates, raisins and dark honey sweetness which balance beautifully with the natural peat smoke and citrus sweetness of Kilchoman."
Elijah Craig Small Batch Bourbon
$53.99
If you like your bourbon full-flavoured and rich in texture then this is the one for you! Toffee, fruity, leathery notes and 94 proof to boot.
Produced by Heaven Hill Distillers and Distilled by their Bernheim Distillery in Louisville, KY, The Elijah Craig Small Batch used to carry an age statement of 12 years old, however, that was replaced by the Small Batch. It is typically made in batches of up to 200 barrels aged 8-12 years old.
Buffalo Trace Bourbon
$44.99
Buffalo Trace distillery is named after the trails of destruction that Plains Bison would leave as they moved from one place to the next. Like Eagle Rare, George T. Stagg, Stagg Jr, and EH Taylor Bourbons, Buffalo Trace Bourbon is made using the distillery's #1 Mash Bill, which is a high corn/low rye content mash in style. This means it is a very high corn content and likely at or less than 10% Rye, with 3-5% Malted Barley making up the remainder. It is purportedly aged for 8-10 years before being bottled at 45% ABV.
Old Forester Classic 86 Proof Bourbon

Lot 40 Rye Whisky
$46.99
Lot 40 was the brainchild of Mike Booth at Hiram Walker. Mike wanted to pay homage to his family's distilling heritage, and so named this 100% rye grain Canadian whisky for the plot of land where his family set up their distillery. The mashbill consists of both malted and unmalted rye. It is a recreation of a legendary Canadian Whisky Guild whisky.
Producer Description
"Lot No. 40 is crafted in small batches using 100% rye grain in a single copper pot still. This concentrates the spicy rye notes, while retaining the fruity and floral notes from fermentation. The whisky is then aged in virgin white oak barrels to bring forth notes of vanilla, caramel and toffee, resulting in a complex and bold whisky."

$54.59
Looking for something a little sweet and a little smokey? This limited edition Boutique-y Canadian Corn whisky has been finished in PX and ex-peated Octave casks before bottling at 10 years of age and 45.8%. The label appears to show Dr. Whisky (Canadian Sam Simmons) as a flapping head Canadian South Park character on a dartboard... or are we reading too much into this!
