FAQs

What does "World Whisky of the Year" mean?
Jim Murray's Whisky Bible is one of the most respected annual whisky guides in the world — being named World Whisky of the Year 2021 placed Alberta Premium above every Scotch, bourbon, and Japanese whisky reviewed that year.

What makes it 100% rye?
Unlike most Canadian whiskies that blend rye with other grains, Alberta Premium is distilled entirely from rye grain — delivering a purer, more intense rye character than virtually any other Canadian whisky.

How should I drink it?
Neat or with a few drops of water to open up the flavors — at cask strength, a small splash reveals remarkable complexity without losing the bold rye character.
