Not your usual Rye.
Founded by Paul Cirka in 2014, this distillery strives to make the finest Whisky in Canada. In the meantime, they also produce other fine white Spirits. Quebec's first grain to bottle distillery and one of the first in Canada, they’ve won several international awards and they’re known for producing some of the finest craft Spirits, especially Whisky.
Cirka Whisky No. 3 is a 4YO rye Whisky that’s crafted from 93% local Quebec rye and 7% German chocolate malted rye. It was finished in 30YO Olorosso sherry casks that came all the way from Spain. This one is non-chill filtered, which is why is so bold and complex. It’s quite different from other Rye Whiskies you’ve probably tried, so you can impress your non-Rye forward friends as well.

Whisky No. 3

A decade ago there were only 6 brands of Rye Whiskey hailing from Kentucky, nowadays there are more than 50!
George Washington famously loved his Rye Whiskey. In fact, after he served as the first president of the United States, he returned to his farm at Mount Vernon and started a small Rye distillery of his own.
Rye sparked the first revolution after the American Independence. It was called the Whiskey Rebellion, and it arose when the government tried to tax Whiskey and enforce the taxation on distillers. The lesson here? Don't mess with a Whiskey drinker's dram.
Rye - think of it as Bourbon's edgier cousin. It’s known for what many call a spicy or fruity flavor. Rye (distilled from at least 51% Rye) is not on the sweet side and tends to have a spicier body. That’s why the character of a cocktail made from Rye, instead of Bourbon, is drier.
