Forty Creek Three Grain Harmony
Posted by Arctic Wolf on June 4, 2015
This is one of my favourite times of the year, as every year in early June, Forty Creek Whisky announces their annual special limited release whisky. This years release has been named Forty Creek Three Grain Harmony, and the distillery is once again inviting the public to participate in the release by offering to let you choose your own numbered bottle.
Reservations for choosing your bottles open at noon on Monday, June 8th and continue until 5:00 p.m. on June 26th, 2015. Of course numbers are available on a first come basis and no two bottle numbers will be the same. (Only 9000 bottles will be produced.)
According to the folks at Forty Creek:
Forty Creek Three Grain Harmony is the 9th Limited Release from Forty Creek Whisky. This year, we decided to create a bit of music by carefully blending and harmonizing three single grains: rye, barley and corn. We began by fermenting and distilling each individual grain separately. Both the rye and the barley stocks date back to when we first began our Forty Creek Distillery. This Limited Release marks the first time these stocks have been introduced into one of our whiskies. As with many of our Signature Editions, the separate, single grain whiskies were patiently aged in toasted white oak barrels. At their peak flavour potential, they were then artfully blended to create the subtle yet complex whisky we named Three Grain Harmony.
The new special release whisky will be bottled at 43% alcohol by volume, and you can find more information here:

(Barley and Rye stocks that date back to the beginnings of the distillery sounds pretty special to me. I usually reserve a few bottles for myself, and this year will be no different.)

Kicking myself for having missed the reservation window. Oh well, hopefully will get to sample it from someone once it’s released in September. Sounds interesting from the description!

It should be readily available in Ontario at least until Christmas (once it is released).

I would love to get my hands on this Whisky but to bad I won’t be in Ontario to pick it up.

Some of the Whisky should make it across the country in the fall. (fingers crossed)
