Canadian Mist is one of Canada’s best selling whiskies. Every drop of spirit in Canadian Mist—rye, corn, and barley alike—is distilled at the Canadian Mist distillery in Collingwood, Ontario. Though called a blend by US regulations, it really is a single-distillery whisky. Canadian Mist makes only one product, despite what others have reported, so yes, there really is, in fact, only one Canadian Mist.
Nose: Begins on dry grass with a vague fruitiness which then quickly becomes fruitier with prunes, cranberries, oranges, hints of sherry, and that undefinable rye fruitiness. Rye spices are then joined by rye grain itself and earthy hints of clay. A unique cola-like aroma is a pleasant surprise that hangs on for quite some time as notes of grain mash, hints of fresh beer, and maybe some nuttiness build beneath it. The whisky smells warm and shows its youth with slightly spirity overtones.
Palate: Toffee, caramel, and right away a cleansing bitter citric zest. The oranges predicted in the nose soon arrive, as do waves of hot pepper and, again, hints of cola. This cola-like flavour, which is quite unusual among Canadian whiskies, comes from pleasing traces of propyl alcohol among the congeners. The whisky quickly becomes fruity with fresh vanilla that supports the sweetness of the toffee notes.
Finish: The finish is medium to short in length, hot and peppery, then fading to sweet toffee. A refreshing citric bitterness rinses away a slight cereal mashiness.
