Award-Winning Craftsmanship
 
Lot No. 40 stands out as a gold-medal winner and one of the few North American whiskies made from 100% rye grain. Distilled at the Hiram Walker Distillery in Windsor, Ontario, this exquisite rye whisky is crafted using locally cultivated rye, distilled one batch at a time in traditional copper pot stills. This method, rooted deeply in heritage, brings out the robust and spicy character that rye whisky enthusiasts cherish.
 
A Recipe Passed Through Generations
 
First released in 2012, Lot No. 40 follows a historic recipe that has been passed down through seven generations, offering a pure and unadulterated expression of rye whisky. Its production highlights a commitment to tradition and quality, capturing the true essence of Canadian whisky craftsmanship.
 
Tasting Notes
 
Nose: The aromatic profile begins with a bold earthy rye presence, immediately noticeable and beautifully complemented by sweeter undertones of caramel and fig. A hint of flamed orange peel adds a complex citrus twist, enhancing the overall richness of the aroma.
Palate: The initial soft floral notes gracefully transition to a more pronounced spice blend of cardamom pod and peppery coriander, creating a vibrant and lively taste experience. Undertones of crunchy brown sugar and fresh vanilla pod add a delightful sweetness that balances the spice.
Finish: True to its rye roots, the finish offers a lingering classic spiciness, leaving a warm and memorable aftertaste that invites further sipping.
