I got the opportunity to try this limited run from Compass recently, and it's fantastic. Unfortunately, sold out already and they're not currently making more, but they damn well should.

In general though, I found myself switching to Canadian whiskey in my cocktails a while ago. Canadian Club is still dog-ass and you shouldn't touch the stuff, but that doesn't mean other distillers haven't been upping their game. Dillons has a really nice whiskey out now, to complement their selection of - and I am 100% not exaggerating here - the best god damn gins ever made, and the Crown Royal Northern Harvest Rye deserves all the awards it was showered with. There's also the Alberta Premium Cask Strength which everyone has been raving about. I've tried the regular Alberta Premium and it really is excellent. I imagine the cask strength is even better.
