There are some solid Canadian whiskys if you go looking. I see you already mentioned the Crown Royal Northern Harvest Rye, but I also recommend the Dillon’s Single Grain Rye, and the Alberta Springs 10 Year Vintage.
But if none of those tickle your taste buds right, may I suggest that you look to our more reliable trading partners and try a rum old fashioned or a mezcal old fashioned. I can also recommend Writers Tears for an affordable and excellent Irish whisky.
(sidebar: While Canadian whisky is definitely at “improving”, I want to note that Canadian gin is incredible. Ungava, Dillon’s, Georgian Bay, and Empress all belong in your cabinet. If you can find it, the Dillon’s Unfiltered No. 7 is the best gin I’ve ever tasted.)
