Product description
Canadian Mist Distillery, located in Collingwood, Ontario, was built in 1967 by Barton Brands Inc.
Canadian whiskey was at the peak of its popularity at the time, and just four years later the distillery was purchased by another American company, Brown-Forman Corporation. The Canadian Mist whiskey formula lists corn, rye and barley malt, as well as a touch of sherry from a local producer. It is distilled in continuous columns and aged for at least three years in American white oak barrels. Canadian Mist is extremely popular in the United States, but remains almost unknown outside of America. Over the years, it has won many medals and awards, the last gold in 2013 at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
