Canadian Club 20 Year Old Blended Canadian Whisky (750ml)

Less overwhelmed by oak than bottlings from a decade ago, this Grand-father blend offers well-defined aromas of choc-caramel, fresh vanilla bean and creamy soda, following through with a rich, creamy delivery that echoes the nose and adds creme caramel, hints of cinnamon toast and delicate orange zest. The finish is mildly resinous, woody, pulling up medium long with vanilla-soaked tannins. A satisfying dessert whisky. 40% Alc./Vol.

Other reviews... Every now and then, Canadian Club dips into its massive reserves to release a longer-aged version of its core 1858 edition. After an initial hit of toffee, a well-defined woody framework supports signature Canadian Club pruney notes, clean grain, and peppery rye. Brown sugar, unsweetened cereal, and hints of barn boards in the middle follow an inviting crispness, enhanced by mild oak tannins and accented by floral top notes. 89 points - whiskyadvocate.com
