Details:

Since 2003 internationally renowned whisky writer Jim Murray has published his annual Whisky Bible, which includes his much discussed pronouncements on whiskies of the year.  The 2016 edition once again stirred controversy, and some Canadian pride, by awarding Whisky of the Year to a rye distilled in Gimli, Manitoba.  Our tasting this year includes the 2016 Whisky of the Year, and will explore some of Murray’s other unusual and traditional picks from past years, many of which have won numerous other awards.

1) Crown Royal Northern Harvest– 2016 Whisky of the Year

2) Redbreast 12 Years Old Irish Pot Still– 2013 Irish Whisky of the Year

3) Glenmorangie Original, 2008 Best Single Malt 10-12 Years

4) Ancnoc Rutter Highland Single Malt, 2010 Best Single Malt

5) Ardbeg Corryvreckan, 2015 Best Single Malt, no age expression
