Forty Creek Barrel Select was my go-to budget option for whiskey and I kinda liked it, until I drank a bit too much of it and it made me extremely sick. Yes, I drank too much, but it shouldn't make you that sick. I have drank the same amount of more expensive whiskeys and not gotten sick at all. I will say, I liked it more in the dark brown bottles. When they changed the bottles, the whiskey changed too.
There are lots of good Canadian whiskey but not a lot of fantastic whiskey. Forty Creek is like the Makers Mark of Canada, one note wonders until you hit the special releases.
