Lot No.40 Small Batch Malted Rye Canadian Whisky (750ml)

The Small Batch Canadian whiskies continue the trend that began with Jim Beam’s Small Batch Bourbons. The philosophy is to follow traditional production methods in order to create a highly individual range of products each with its own idiosyncrasies. New additions to the Canadian Whiskey portfolio have arrived in Australia.

Lot No. 40 whisky is distilled in a single copper pot still from a mash of small grains and malted rye. Distiller Michael Booth comments on Lot No.40’s flavour as being, "A natural, unrefined taste you won’t soon forget."

Other reviews… This is a great whisky, irrespective of whichever country it came from. As for a Canadian, this is true rye whisky, one with which I was very proud to be associated in the early blending days. Elegant stuff.

Nose: Light but exotic with some marzipan, varnish, Turkish delight, apricot (orange muscat) orange pith and milky coffee. Palate: Light with sweet spices and a light bite. All on the sweeter more fragrant side of the spectrum. Finish: Clean with light peppery rye tingle. Still that sweetness. Comment: A mellow Canadian take on things with enough peppery bite to keep rye fans happy. Rating: 77 - tasting note sourced from David Broom, www.whiskymag.com
