|
For far too long Canadian whiskey was overshadowed by the Crown Royal's of the world. The truth is, some of the best whiskey is produced in Canada. Bottlers like Found North are now making those barrels available to whiskey lovers across the country. If this is your first foray into Canadian whiskey, you started in the right place. Found North just released their single barrel rye finished in PX Sherry barrels. This is an incredible marriage of rye spice and red fruit sweetness. It is raspberry jam lathered thick on buttered rye toast. With this release Found North breaks down exactly how they select their single barrels. It's incredibly insightful to see the amount of time and thought invested in this release.
Picking when to bottle a single barrel is one of the most enjoyable and challenging aspects of making whisky. Whisky does not always age in a linear manner. The flavors that begin to emerge don’t simply intensify and concentrate. They ripple and roll like waves in the ocean. One moment they are there. The next they are gone. It’s like a walk through a field of flowers. The wind carries a beautiful note on its currents and by the time you identify it, the note is in the wind and in the past. There is no turning back. If you loved a note in month 7 that vanishes in month 8, you can’t recover and bottle what you had. The only choice is between “now” and “wait and see.” So when do you bottle an undulating palate and an ephemeral nose? When do you decide the moment is now? |
