A Spirited History Part 3, Distilling in Canada potatoes from a neighbouring farm. “I use B-grade, odd-sized, misshapen but unblemished potatoes that would otherwise be fed to cows or buried,” says master distiller Tyler Schramm adding, “The spent mash is used for animal feed.” Pemberton makes 8,500 litres (about 950 cases) each year. Schramm, bullish on the industry, says, “People are looking for variety and and unique spirits.” Victoria Spirits made its first batch of Victoria Gin in 2004 and hasn’t looked back. It’s a family affair for Bryan and Valerie Murray and son Peter Murray is the master distiller. Victoria Spirits crafts 12,000 litres annually, mostly Victoria Gin, plus barrel-aged Oaken Gin and Hemp Vodka. Compared to Glenora BaNFF ice vodKa Canada $23.75 350397 Alberta Distillers, founded in 1946 and now owned by beam Global, makes this highly drinkable grain vodka, a gold medalist at the 2010 San Francisco World Spirits Competition. Light and supple, with sweet aromatics and a slightly peppery finish, banff ice is ideal in mixed drinks. POTTER’S LOT 15 25 CENTuRy RESERVE WHISKy Canada $34.95 458711 This newbie to Canada’s whisky world is a custom blend of 15 to 25 year-aged, handcrafted, premium whiskies. it’s luxurious, complex and smooth with notes of citrus, honey and vanilla and lingering mellow spiciness on the finish. Distillers, that sells across Canada and exports to 25 countries, Valerie Murray says, “We’re in five provinces. We’re the little still that could.” While they’ll never be giants in the spirits world, artisan distillers have carved out a niche, appealing to connoisseurs looking for new experiences and locavores who want to source not only their wine and beer close to home but their spirits too. Runaway success Crystal Head Vodka distilled in St. John’s, Newfoundland and owned by Canadian celebrity Dan Aykroyd, is packaged in distinctive skull-shaped clear glass bottles helping to make it one of the coolest libations around. Originally meant to SmirNoFF red laBel Canada $23.75 67 First made in Moscow in the 1860s, Smirnoff red Label is one of the original triple-distilled vodkas and is filtered 10 times for smoothness and clarity. Enjoy in a classic Caesar, bloody Mary or Screwdriver. WHITE OWL WHISKy Canada $39.99 122317 Alberta’s Highwood Distillers has a hit with newly released, award-winning White owl Whisky. Canada’s only fully oak-aged, triple charcoalfiltered clear whisky is a blend of 10-year-old wheat grain and younger rye grain whiskies. Enjoy neat or mixed in cocktails. be an artisan distillery (a 5,000-case project), sales quickly escalated to 46,000 cases in 2009 and to one million bottles six months later, placing it in the realm of really big micro-distilleries but not at the industrial level. The spirited business of distilling in Canada continues its colourful journey. The industry is growing greener as PET (polyethylene terephthalate) bottles become more popular and new spirits such as White Owl Whisky find favour. Artisan distillers, Victoria Spirits for example, continue to win fans for their handcrafted products and iconic Canadian whisky brands like Canadian Club and Crown Royal continue to rule at home and beyond. GLENORa GLEN BRETON SINGLE MaLT Canada $87.83 601062 Everything about this whisky is Scottish – except that it is made in Canada. The only single malt made in this country, Glenora Glen breton is a smooth Scotch-like liquor boasting toasty wood and caramel notes. VICTORIa GIN Canada $49.99 645085 A silver medalist in the 2009 San Francisco World Spirits Competition, balanced and assertively flavoured Victoria Gin is bC’s first artisan gin. Made from wild-gathered, organic botanicals including juniper berries, coriander and angelica. Savour it neat, in classic martinis or in cocktails. TASTE 53
