Review: Forty Creek Art of The Blend

Posted by Arctic Wolf on June 14, 2023

Forty Creek recently rebranded itself as Forty Creek Niagara Whisky which seems to be an attempt to infuse the notion of Canadian Whisky style unique to the  Niagara wine growing region of Canada. Their Art of The Blend whisky was as far as I know the first of their bottlings to sport the new moniker. And, I suspect to drive the point home,this is a whisky with a firm connection to wine making.

According to the Forty Creek Whisky website:

Our Master Blender Bill Ashburn celebrates 35 years of imagination and craft with this extraordinary limited creation. Art of the Blend tells his story, first the making of wine, then the art of whisky blending. Ashburn’s creation is our iconic Niagara whisky infused with grapes harvested in the darkest hours of winter. A stunning expression of whisky mastery and experimentation, it is a sensational journey that never ends.

Here is a link to my full review:

“… What strikes me first is how fruity the nose is with red berries, purple grapes and fresh green apples showing off in the breezes. There is a hint of sourness which reminds me of fermenting fruit and tart raspberry jam …”
