Canadian Club Imported 6 Year Old 1970s

Experience the rich and complex profile of this Canadian Whisky, a distillery bottling from the "Imported" series. Bottled sometime in the 1970s at 70° proof this is a true gem to be kept intact so well. The aroma is a delightful tapestry of sweetness and earthy tones. It opens with the comforting scents of vanilla and sweet honey, followed by the unique fragrance of beeswax. This is complemented by the sophisticated notes of sandalwood and the distinct scent of pencil shavings, evoking a sense of nostalgia. Further exploration reveals hints of cereal maize, draff, and a touch of linseed oil, adding depth and complexity to the bouquet. The palate is a harmonious continuation of the nose, dominated by rich vanilla and its creamy derivative, vanilla custard. It seamlessly transitions into the decadent sweetness of crème brulee and the exotic flair of coconut. The taste of runny, light honey adds a syrupy and oily texture, while nuances of butter and cereals round out the flavor. The presence of pencil shavings, sawdust, and green oak wood imparts a slightly spicy and acrid character, enhancing the whisky's boldness. The finish is short yet impactful, leaving a sweet and estery aftertaste. Notes of pear drops and overripe bananas linger, providing a fruity and slightly fermented end to the tasting experience. This Canadian Whisky is a true gem, showcasing the artistry and finesse of Canadian distilling. Its unique flavor profile, combining both sweet and woody elements, makes it a fascinating choice for whisky enthusiasts and casual sippers alike.
