Stampede Canadian Rye Whisky, crafted by Eau Claire Distillery, pays homage to Western heritage and the pioneering spirit of the Canadian West. This whisky is a blend of Alberta barley and rye, resulting in a harmonious flavor profile. On the nose, it presents notes of nutmeg, malt, toffee, and apricot.


The palate offers flavors of chocolate, caramelized sugar, vanilla, oak, and spice, leading to a smooth finish. Bottled at 40% ABV, Stampede Canadian Rye Whisky is versatile, suitable for sipping neat or as a base in cocktails like the Manhattan.
