Pendleton Blended Canadian Whisky, 10 year old, 40% Price: $26.00
Brand: Pendleton
Category:  Canadian

Fruity on the nose and palate (orange peel, lime, lemon, pineapple). Very smooth and creamy, too, with notes of vanilla and a touch of honey. Underlying brittle mint, delicate floral notes, and even a hint of sandalwood gives the whisky some dimension. Very clean and nicely rounded. The problem with many Canadian whiskies is that they are too harsh when young, but get too woody when aged for ten or more years, because they are too thin in body to stand up to the oak. This one has matured nicely while still maintaining good balance and drinkability.

My Grandfather always drank Seagrams, but then that was U.S. prohibition, and there weren't too many moonshiners in Middletown Connecticut...

Crown reserve and cask no16. Cask 16 is my favorite whiskey bar none. It's more or less the same recipe as crown reserve but it's made in cognac barrels. Amazing.

Windsor Canadian.

8.95/750ml and it's pretty good. Surprisingly good for the money.

Windsor Canadian, 40% Price: $11.00
Brand: Windsor
Category:  Canadian

Typical rye spices bathe in rich, smooth caramels and burnt sugar, with a gingery cayenne burn. Real black pepper engulfs cloves and cinnamon in a fiery and vibrant display, while vague tones of milk chocolate gently cool things down. Then an oiliness and mouth-filling richness sweep over a tinge of bitter herbal elixir and, yes, sawdust. This classic high-rye whisky from Alberta Distillers brings suggestions of dark fruit to an underlying nuttiness.

I think you grabbed the WC Spiced. Never tried it.

This is the one I'm talkin' bout.


It's pretty close to CR taste. Not quite as smooth or clean of a taste. But at half the price, and after the first couple, you won't notice the difference.

I think this one is fitting your description

Wiser's Rye is my latest favorite.  Wiser's deluxe mix with ginger ale is an awesome drink in my book.  Nice spice that complements the ginger very well.  I just take shots of the rye while drinking beer.

Cask 16 is the only Crown product I have yet to try.  I will place it at the top of my list.

Used to be Canadian Club Classic, but it was making my throat sore. Actually slowing way down on Crown. Running out of things to quit. Getting older sucks.

CC followed by Black Velvet. Crown is too fancy.

An extended member of the in-laws taught me the best trick. Drink half of a Diet Coke or Coors Light, and fill with CC. Don't even need a glass!!
