A Canadian whisky (spellt 'Whisky' rather than 'Whiskey' as in the U.S. and Ireland) of quality and affordable price. Like other Canadian-style whiskies, it's smoother than Rye or Scotch, yet not as sweet as Bourbon or Tenessee Whiskey like Jack Daniel's. Smooth enough to enjoy straight and it mixes well.
