I too find Crown over-sweet beyond.....beyond. It's
like drinking hard candy. I'd take a Wisers Very Old
-Special Old over any whiskey if I was drinking
whiskey.

I don't necessarily like tequila, I like lemons. Ate them all the time when I was a kid. Even ate the lemon peels. Tequila is just a side of the lemon for me. I will say that I've never had a hangover when drinking tequila shots.

A toast to Canadian Club Chronicles: Just recently, Canada’s oldest whisky is now considered the country’s best, having taken top honours at the 11th annual non-profit Canadian Whisky Awards. The award was given after nine independent whisky experts named the 43-year-old Canadian Club Chronicles as Canadian Whisky of the Year (Canadian Club 43 also took top honours as Connoisseur Whisky of the Year).

The independent panel of whisky experts, made up of both women and men tasters who truly understand Canadian whisky, selects the winners after tasting each whisky blind.

“This is truly a remarkable whisky, so deserving of the accolade,” said Davin de Kergommeaux, head judge and founder of the awards, in a recent release. “Canadian Club has been shortlisted for best whisky in past years, and for 2021, the judges awarded Canadian Club 43-year-old the highest overall score among over 130 Canadian whiskies entered in the competition.”

The recent release revealed other winnners, including Pendleton Director’s Reserve which was named Connoisseur Whisky of the Year in the multi-market category., J. P. Wiser’s Triple Barrel Rye, which is a U.S. exclusive, took home Sippin’ Whisky of the Year in the export-only category, while Gibson’s Finest Bold was named Sippin’ Whisky of the Year for the Canadian market.

J.P. Wiser’s 22-Year-Old Port Cask Finished claimed Cask Strength Whisky of the year, and the Lot No. 40 Dark Oak was named Best New Whisky. Windsor’s Hiram Walker Distillery is the 2021 Distillery of the Year, while Devine Distillery and Winery in Saanich, British Columbia was awarded Artisanal Distillery of the Year.

The Canadian Whisky Awards are fully independent of the Canadian whisky industry, and not only recognize the very best this country has to offer, but is also “intended to encourage distillers to maintain the highest quality standards,” noted the recent release, adding, to qualify, each whisky must be distilled and matured in Canada.
