Patience, Time & Talent

Grimsby, Ontario

-Exquisite Hand-crafted Whiskies from Forty Creek

Following their recent success at the International Spirits Challenge held in London England, where their Canadian Whisky won the highest tasting award, Kittling Ridge, a cottage distiller in Grimsby, Ontario has taken Canada’s famous spirit to a new level. Two Great Canadian Whiskies called Forty Creek are their celebration for the new millenium. For Kittling Ridge, a visit back in time to Canada’s heritage and tradition spurred the development of Forty Creek Whiskies.
“Forty Creek Whiskies have been inspired by my passion to create whiskies that rekindle the heritage of Canadian craftsmanship and quality” explains John Hall, whisky maker.
“I’ve been a Winemaker for 30 years and I approach whisky making the same way, bringing out the best characteristics and subtleties by using various small grains and barrel aging techniques.” Hall states “From a creative standpoint, I have a whole new canvas to paint on. But, you have to be more patient to see the results. You can produce wine and have it on the market in a couple of years. With whisky, you must care for it six, eight, twelve years.”
Product development for Forty Creek has been 8 years in the making. But Hall’s patience has been rewarded. As Jim Murray, world whisky writer from London England states, “John’s aim has been to produce something entirely different from other Canadian Distillers. And in that, he has already succeeded beyond his wildest dreams.”
Hall classifies himself as a first generation whisky maker, his distillery is the only Canadian privately owned distillery left in Ontario, and while his multinational competitors started over 100 years ago, Hall is determined to rekindle the quality and hand craftsmanship of Canadian Whisky.
Canadian Whisky is the largest selling spirit category in Ontario accounting for 31% of the spirits market. Consumers are beginning to search for quality whiskies. High quality Canadian Whiskies are up an amazing 8% this year and now represent 18% of all Canadian Whisky sales. Premium brands are becoming more popular as whisky lovers begin to exercise their palates.

Forty Creek Three Grain
A delicate harmonization of malted barley, rye & maize. The small grains are distilled as separate batches in our copper pot still and patiently aged in small toasted oak barrels. Each Varietal grain lends a distinct character to the whisky. The nuttiness of the barley, the fruitiness of the rye, and the richness of the maize are skillfully blended to achieve the finesse of this complex whisky.

Forty Creek Barrel Select
Distilled in small batches in the small copper pot still and aged in white oak barrels hand-picked for their unique characteristics. A careful selection of light, medium and heavy char barrels create a richness and toasted earthiness in the spirit. Vintage sherry casks were chosen to round off the whiskies. This unique barrel selection process results in a whisky where aromas of honey, vanilla and apricot fuse with toasty oak, black walnut and spice.
Established in 1992, Kittling Ridge has become recognized for their innovation in the industry. Their highly acclaimed Icewine & Brandy has garnered over 20 International tasting awards. Their eye-catching Inferno Pepper Pot Vodka, with 2 flaming red peppers inside the bottle is acknowledged as making the world’s greatest Bloody Caesar. Kittling Ridge has been recognized by the Ontario Government 3 years in a row as an Innovative Growth Firm, adding significant economic value to the Province.

CANADIAN CLUB CLASSIC.


 

Location : Canada
Country : Canada
Type :  Canadian whisky
Distillery :  ?
Founded : By Hiram Walker.
Age :  12 Years Old
Vol :  ?%
Water : Unknown
Remark :

Canadian club was first produced in a world where spittoon was considered quite sophisticated. Life was harsh and the whisky harsher. Hiram Walker, its founder, set out to create a different whisky that offered a smoother, cleaner taste. Canadian club's distillation process is long and intense. It takes out the harshness and leaves behind the delicate character of the whisky. The Bourbon influence is important, because it adds some of the richness and fruitiness of American whiskey. Part of Hiram Walker's genius was to combine this Bourbon aura with light, smooth and mellow qualities. This is the balance that produced the definitive Canadian whisky.
Canadian Club – No Ordinary Whisky

Note: Canadian Whiskey is not a Bourbon but Canadian Whiskey..

Allied Walker Distributors Ltd Says:
The 12 year old. The extra 6 years maturing in wood produces a darker spirit with more of the traditional characteristics of aged whiskies and an even richer, more aromatic flavour. 
Definitely no ordinary whisky.

ALBERTA BOTTLINGS


Carrington
Sorry no picture.  
Age : 3 years old.
Vol : ?%
Type : ?
Price ?
Taste : ?
Remark : Has an aggressive streak from the rye which has refunded to be tamed by the oak. With Windsor (4 years old) the rougher edges have been honed.

Alberta Premium
Sorry no picture.  
Age : ? years old.
Vol : ?%
Type : ?
Price ?
Taste : ?
Remark : Is mouth-filling, with an irresistible mix of sweet melting vanillins on a stratum of granite-like rye hardness. The finish is about as long as that of any non-peated whisky of this age.

Alberta Springs
Alberta Springs 10 years old Canadian Rye Whisky  
Age : 10 years old.
Vol : ?%
Type : Canadian Rye Whisky
Price ?
Taste : ?
Remark : Should be one of the world's finest, has a touch of honey and is light enough to allow the rye to have its extra say but is a tad too soft, to bitter too like cognac.

Tangleridge
Sorry no picture.  
Age : 10 years old.
Vol : ?%
Type : ?
Price ?
Taste : ?
Remark : Is a bit sweeter but a sop to the chattering mases (US market only). The distillery also produces a selection of 3 years old own-label, including the UK's seminal Canadian Gold.
