DISTILLERY NOTES

Our Single Malt Whisky is made from the finest barley grown minutes from our distillery on the Saanich Peninsula. We mashed, fermented, distilled twice and aged it in once-used Bourbon barrels for 3 years in the tradition of Scotch Whisky. Notes of citrus and ripe pear give way to vanilla, cinnamon and clove, then a lingering malty finish and a whiff of sea air.

BC SPIRITS NOTES

Can't believe I haven't had this on the show before! The Devine Distillery Glen Saanich #5 is their more classic style single malt whisky and this batch does not disappoint, bright and fresh on the nose, pear, Xmas spice and hints of vanilla; on the palate the pear and citrus is evident with bright freshness leading to complex spice notes and hints of maltiness and oak in the finish.

Alcohol - 45% / 90 proof

Color - Medium copper orange

Nose - A blend of high citrus notes, pear and gorgeous fragrant spices

Taste - This is three sided, one side is beautiful ripe pear and citrus, then complex spice notes and finally with vanilla oak that lingers. Complex but approachable.

Finish - The grain structure shows itself in the finish, spiced and rich

Best Enjoyed - Neat
