Canadian Club has released the highly anticipated Canadian Club 44-Year-Old, Canada’s oldest aged whisky, and the fourth edition of the iconic Chronicles Series. Paying tribute to its legendary role during Prohibition, Canadian Club has dubbed this limited-edition expression ‘The Whisky Sixes.’ Batched and barrelled in 1977, Canadian Club 44-Year-Old displays rich aromas of vanilla, crisp apple, and molasses blended with burnt sugar, custard, caramel, and chocolate.
The palate presents complex notes of dried fruit and plum with zesty spices and chocolate, followed by a well-rounded and lingering sweet oak finish. The spirit’s fullness and sweetness are perfectly balanced, showcasing the distillery’s masterful craftsmanship that has been tirelessly honed for more than 160 years.
