Forty Creek Barrel Select Canadian Whisky 750 ml

Forty Creek Barrel Select is a Canadian whisky from Forty Creek Distillery in Ontario, distinguished by a house practice of distilling and aging corn, rye and barley separately before blending them together, rather than mashing all the grains at once as most whisky producers do. Expect a smooth, approachable profile with vanilla, caramel and light spice, reflecting the careful blending of separately matured grain whiskies. It's a widely available, well-regarded entry point into Canadian whisky beyond the more mass-market blended names. It doesn't demand any particular glassware — a standard rocks glass or a simple tulip does the job just fine.
