#Top100CanadianWhisky of 2017 – #69 Glen Saanich Single Malt Whisky
Posted by Arctic Wolf on October 16, 2017
John & Cathy Windsor manage the family owned and operated de Vine Vineyards on Vancouver Island (near Victoria British Columbia). As well as growing grapes for wine making the vineyard houses a small still from which they distill both grapes and grains producing a variety of spirits including Vodka, Gin and Single Malt Whisky.
I had an opportunity to taste Glen Saanich Single Malt Whisky when I acted as a juror for the 2017 Canadian Whisky Awards. While judging, I wrote up tasting notes for each dram as I scored them (in a blind tasting format). I also saved a wee bit of each sample such that I could revisit them after the judging when it was revealed to me which sample belonged to which whisky. From those tasting notes and from my last sampling session afterwards I wrote this review.
Here is a link to the #69 Canadian Whisky on my 2017 List:
