The Canadian Club Canadian whisky brand, owned by spirits giant Beam-Suntory, has been producing whisky in Canada for almost 160 years, making it something of a historical icon there. One imagines there is a lot of older whisky stock sitting around in their warehouses, much like one might see at older Scottish distilleries. Those there are now tapping some of the oldest they have available for bottling, unveiling a very limited edition 41 year old expression.
Canadian Club, in looking to go more upscale, is bringing forth this bottling as the first in a new series of premium expressions that will pay bring greater awareness to its history. The line up will be dubbed CC Chronicles, and this particular release is being called Issue No.1: Water of Windsor.
