Canadian Club Blended Whisky 70 cl

Product Information

Canadian Club 6 Year Old blended whisky, produced in the year 1979, the same year that Alien and Mad Max were released. A good year for film! Sadly for this rare bottle, it has lived quite a life and acquired a fair amount of dirt, a tear and potential liquid damage to the label. Chauvin, Francis X. (1927), Hiram Walker: His Life, His Work, and the Development of the Walker Institutions in Walkerville, Ontario ..., Ontario: S.n. (Taken from Hiram Walker & Sons Ltd. Archive) The first "Hide A Case" campaign officially ended in 1971. A second was started in 1975, where cases were hidden in places intended to be easier to access, such as in Death Valley and on top of a skyscraper in New York City. This second campaign ended in 1981; between it and the first, 22 cases were hidden and at least 16 recovered. [6] Hiram Walker founded his distillery in 1858 in Detroit. He first learned how to distill cider vinegar in his grocery store in the 1830s before moving on to whisky and producing his first barrels in 1854. [1] However, with the Prohibition movement gathering momentum and Michigan already becoming "dry," Walker decided to move his distillery across the Detroit River to Windsor, Ontario. [2] From here, he was able to export his whisky and start to develop Walkerville, a model community that Walker financed to provide housing and services for his employees.

For the whisky's 150th anniversary in 2008, a 30-year-old version was released in a very limited bottling. Canadian Club whisky comes in seven versions, and as a straight rye. All are 80 proof (40% alcohol by volume) except where noted otherwise.

Blending and Bottling

I cannot, for the life of me, understand anybody maligning this inexpensive whisky. It is ripe with pleasant aroma and flavour and great value for money.

The legend of Canadian Club began in 1858 and grew to become one of the world's most iconic whiskies. Pouring a medium gold you will find aromas of roasted almond, vanilla and pepper; with spicy vanilla, cornflakes and a faint nutty flavour on a medium weight palate with a long finish. If you’re looking for more complexity and a bit more personality, Canadian Club® Classic 12-Year-Old is for you. With a more robust barley profile, it’s a nice step up from 1858 or Reserve. This award-winning blended spirit is aged for 12 years in seasoned, char-treated oak bourbon barrels. Canadian Club has received the royal warrants of Queen Victoria, Edward VII, George V, George VI, and Elizabeth II. Hiram Walker & Sons is the only North American distiller to have been granted a royal warrant. [4] Now I know why, for the price you can’t beat it. It’s a great mellow flavour. No burn, just a nice easy drink. This is a great drink. I was introduced to it after my bosses father left quite a lot in the office and said take what you want. He had plenty of it and said it’s all he drank.

In 1967, Hiram Walker & Sons launched their "Hide A Case" advertising campaign that enticed drinkers to seek out cases of Canadian Club hidden at exotic locations throughout the world, including Mount Kilimanjaro, Angel Falls, Mount St. Helens and the Swiss Alps. The Mount Kilimanjaro case was not discovered until a Dutch journalist happened upon it in the mid-1970s. A small number of cases, such as one hidden above the Arctic Circle, were never found. A 1973 bottling of Canadian Club 6 Year Old Whisky, bottled at 40% ABV. This was produced the same year that 'Enter the Dragon' was released in cinemas. This is relevant because all Bruce Lee films are relevant at all times, no matter the context. During the years of Prohibition, one of the distillery's most important clients was Chicago gangster Al Capone, who smuggled in thousands of cases of Canadian Club via a route from Windsor to Detroit. [3] Produced in 1971, this collectible bottle of Canadian Blue Whisky is a rare piece for fans of the famous Canadian brand. Hiram Walker & Sons, cheers for all the years of hard work!
