DISTILLERY NOTES
TRUST Southern begins with 100% organic corn grown in Spallumcheen, British Columbia. It is triple-distilled in our hand-made CARL single copper pot still. For (3) years, it has rested in new American Oak barrels to gain character, complexity and colour. Once extracted from barrel, the corn based whiskey is then blended with Liberty’s rye for a final whiskey composition of 75% corn and 25% rye.
TRUST Southern presents with a beautiful rich amber tone. On the nose, TRUST Southern offers toasted orange notes. Mandarin orange peel, oak, and textbook ‘ripe’ peach character are underscored by a layer of warm caramel and vanilla. Rich and well balanced with spice, honey and subtle sweetness. Warm and soothing, with a long lasting finish that just lingers on and on.
BC SPIRITS NOTES
Liberty Distilleries foray into a bourbon style whisky is very good. They first triple distill 100% corn and age that in American oak for over 3 years. Once that is aged, they blend with their house rye at a mix of 75% corn and 25% rye; very Canadian way of doing things. The palate is dry, punchy corn notes with their aromatic spicy rye balancing out the mix; Canadian corn is notoriously dry in comparison to it's southern counterparts, so this gives you rich complexity but isn't as rich sweetness as American bourbon.
