Canadian Club whisky was first produced in a world where the spittoon was considered quite sophisticated. Life was harsh in the mid 1800's in North America & the whiskey was harsher. Hiram Walker (distiller), set out to create a different whiskey that offered a smoother, cleaner taste. Even in those days, Canadian Whiskey was beginning to create a new flavour, combining the richness & fruitiness of bourbon for a cleaner, crisper palate. Canadian Club, with it's unique distilling process was a cut above the rest. Lighter than Scotch & smoother than bourbon, this was no ordinary whiskey. Still made & bottled in Walkerville Canada, Canadian Club is the only Canadian whiskey that is 'barrel-blended' prior to aging in white oak barrels to allow the flavours to marry. Aged six years (twice the period of required by Canadian law), Canadian Club is a true, quality Canadian whisky that has not changed with time. A versatile drink, enjoy Canadian Club straight, on the rocks or in a variety of mixed drinks. Canadian Club has been the world's favourite Canadian whiskey for more than 140 years & has set the standard for great whiskey. It's a smooth satisfying taste that will never go out of style.
