Over the years, Canadian distillers have perfected their craft, producing some of the finest whiskey in the world. If you’re looking for a “harder” drink, you can also try a whiskey neat. This simply refers to taking a shot of Canadian Club straight, without any ice or mixers added. Can You Drink Canadian Club with Lemonade Canadian Club whisky comes in seven versions, and as a straight rye. All are 80 proof (40% alcohol by volume) except where noted otherwise.Mouthfeel: Honestly, there’s not much of a difference between the two because both are pretty thin and weak here. If you like a sweeter and spicier flavour profile, you will likely go with Canadian Club. Those who prefer a touch of spice with less flavour will enjoy Seagram’s VO. 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] The great thing about combining Canadian Club with lemonade is that it’s incredibly easy to make. All you need are two parts of the whisky, one part of the lemonade, and some ice. Pour them all into a glass over some ice, stir it up and enjoy.

I didn’t feel too strongly about the mouthfeel for either whisky. However, I prefer sweeter drinks, and Canadian Club had a gentle, fresh, and sweet feel to it. Therefore, it had a slight edge for that reason alone. 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] With its subtle, sweet notes and refreshing fizz, Canadian Club is the perfect ingredient for this mix. The slightly bitter taste of the whiskey is balanced out by the sweetness of soda and lime, creating a drink that’s both refreshing and complex. Walker's whisky was particularly popular in the late 19th century gentlemen's clubs of the United States and Canada; hence it became known as "Club Whisky." Walker originally positioned the whisky as a premium liquor, pitching it not only on its smoothness and purity but also its five-year oak barrel aging. The finish is smooth but short-lived. You’ll experience the caramel flavour and light rye spice up until the end, but it might have a subtle sour note afterward.

On the first sip, the initial feeling makes you question “Is it water or alcohol?” Overall, the taste is very thin. You won’t get much flavour here. There’s certainly a feeling of drinking alcohol, and it will burn. Likewise, the artificial whisky notes are there if you focus on them. Strength: If we focus on alcohol content, we’ll see that they are both the same. Therefore, you’re getting the same amount of alcohol per volume, regardless of the one you choose. Canadian Club is a brand of Canadian whisky produced by Beam Suntory. Popularly known as CC, Canadian Club was created by Hiram Walker and Sons, an evolution of a brand around a product that took place over the second half of the nineteenth century. Hiram Walker merged with Gooderham & Worts, Ltd. in 1926, yielding Hiram Walker-Gooderham & Worts, Ltd.

Yes! The country is the perfect environment for growing whisky grains, and Canadian whiskies frequently earn top billing at international whisky competitions. That said, most of the best bottlings (think Gibson’s 18-year-old and craft distillery single malts) aren’t distributed outside of the country—making a strong case for a Canadian whisky tour. Of course, there were a few other aroma elements that were appealing about Seagram’s VO, but the acetone smell was just too much. Moonshine is notorious for that whiskey burn. Without the mellowing effects of barrel-aging, this is whiskey straight out of the still, so it’s anything but subtle. Today’s legal moonshine scene is producing some rather impressive whiskeys. Distillers are putting more attention into the craft and taste of this corn liquor, and diluting it to a normal bottling strength takes the edge off. It’s a great time to give ’shine a second taste! The Summer campaign is something we’re very confident will bolster our strength in the Australian market, by prompting Aussies to reconsider that very automatic behaviour of purchasing beer for great outdoor adventures.” So far, I’ve talked about Seagram’s VO and Canadian Club as individuals. Now, it’s time to tie it all together to help you make a decision about what’s right for you.Edwards, Chris (2007-05-10). "Getting The Royal Treatment". Walkerville Times . Retrieved 2011-05-07.

Reminiscent of moonshine or poitín, this ‘rawness’ isn’t something most people aren’t prepared for and it will take some getting used to. In a sense, this is probably the whisky for non-whisky drinkers. I say that because it’s sweeter than most, and it can ease people into whisky if they’ve never tried it before or have had bad experiences in the past.

Lemonade is a great way to balance out the strong flavor of rye whiskey, making it a popular mixer for those who want something a bit sweeter. Canadian Club and The Monkeys won for their entry “How long-term brand building led to the 3 most successful years in Canadian Club history”. Distilled spirits are not like wine and don’t improve with age after bottling. The taste of whiskey will not change from the day it leaves the distillery, and while it could get worse, no length of time will make a bad whiskey taste good.
