Glen Breton 12 YR Ice Wine Barrel Single Malt Whisky

Glen Breton 12 YR Ice Wine Barrel Single Malt Whisky 750ml

Serving as North America’s first single malt distillery, Glen Breton has set a high bar of excellence for single malts created in Canada. Nestled among the hills of Nova Scotia, Canada, forward thinkers founded Glenora Distillery back in 1989 with the help of one of the whisky world’s greatest minds, Jim McEwan. Using traditional pot stills, mash tuns and maturation processes, Glen Breton was born and became one of the world’s most sought-after single malts (figuratively and legally).

Their water is sourced from MacLellan’s Brook, which starts in the Cape Breton Highlands, Glen Breton directly takes on the identity of their 900-acre property from start to finish. On the property, fields of heather grow alongside a maple wood forest, which directly impacts their flavors while ageing in ex-bourbon casks. With cold winters and hot summers, the exbourbon casks elevate the terroir during the natural breathing cycle year after year.

For the last four months of the maturation process, the single malt distillate is finished in ice wine barrels sourced from around Nova Scotia. The robust nature of the single malt melds with the sweetness of the ice wine barrels to create some of the most unique single malt whisky in the Western Hemisphere.

The result of sitting in a dunnage warehouse year after year has resulted in numerous awards from around the world. Enjoy this whisky neat, on a large ice cube or play around with an Old Fashion with a barspoon of maple simple sugar, allspice dram and aromatic bitters
