Whisky 12 years Canadian Club Classic

Canadian Club is a prestigious Canadian whisky brand founded in 1858 by Hiram Walker in Walkerville, Ontario. From the beginning, Canadian Club has distinguished itself by the superior quality of its whisky, which has quickly led to its success in both Canada and the United States. Unlike the usual practice of the time, Walker chose to mark his whiskey barrels to ensure the recognition and quality of his product (Canadian Club).

The whisky was originally known as "Club Whisky" because it was sold mainly in gentlemen's clubs. Its growing popularity in the United States has prompted U.S. bourbon producers to ask the government to legislate for all Canadian whiskies to indicate their country of origin. Thus, "Club Whisky" became "Canadian Club" (Wikipedia).

During the U.S. Prohibition, Canadian Club became the most popular contraband whisky, illegally transported across the border by gangsters such as Al Capone. This period strengthened the reputation of Canadian Club as a whisky of choice during these difficult years

The distinctive feature of the Canadian Club is its unique production process where the different grains—maize, rye, rye malt and barley malt—are distilled separately before being mixed before maturation. This process allows flavors to develop harmoniously over time. The whisky is aged in charred oak barrels, giving it its distinctive notes of vanilla, caramel and spices

The brand offers a diverse range of products, including the famous Canadian Club 1858, the 12 year old Small Batch, and the Chairmans Select 100% Rye, each offering a unique flavor profile and a soft finish. Canadian Club continues to innovate by expanding its offer with flavoured whiskies and ready-to-eat drinks, maintaining its relevance in a competitive market
