...according to Jim Murray's Whiskey Bible. The Canadian Rye hit 97.5 out of 100 points! I bought a case (12 bottles), hoping that the $34 bottle does what the 2015 winner did.....fingers crossed!

Last year, the Japanese whiskey (Yamazaki Single Malt) that Jim Murray deemed as Whiskey of the Year, went from $100 per bottle, to $8000!!

Whisky has killed more men than bullets, but most men would rather be full of whisky than bullets.

I have the CR Rye and it's very good. I hoped to get a bottle of the Yami Sherry Cask but unlikely at this point. There is so much of the CR around cant imagine it increasing in value but with whiskey these days, anything is possible. I've been buying up Yami (3), Hibiki(5)and Nikka 12's (2 but ordering 4 or 5 more). Also picked up Laphroaig 18 which is being replaced by a 15.

The Northern Harvest is sold out in BC. They had a limit of 2 bottles per person but my wife lucked out and got a rookie kid, that apparently wasn't aware of that LOL.

Yep and i should have bought some when I saw it in duty free going to Germany back in December. My wife's boss had a tiny bit left and let me try it. I liked it! Gotta get my hands on some
