I work at Alberta distillers in Calgary. Great members and employees who put a great effort in making great whisky and vodka. 18 years working there. The distillery just turned 75 years old. Good video. I would tell you how we do it but its top secret lol.
Lol doing great things over there. I feel the best is yet to come.
I was searching (online) one of my local liquor stores for cask strength bourbons and this came up and when I went to UA-cam to find a review on it, and I found out that its a $60 bottle and the site listed it at $31.99, I searched other stores and every one of them had it listed for $69.99! I got their as quickly as I could and that ($31.99) was the price? the clerk that helped me said it was the last bottle and that "they" whoever they are said to drop the price and I told him if that's so, you're the only ones passing the savings on to your costumers everyone else has it for $69.99. He said Well then you better savor it because you most likely won't be getting another for that price. Mine is the newer bottle batch #3 and its only 63.7% abv. still 127.4% can't wait to try it! Great review and 🥃Cheers!
That’s awesome. Most wouldn’t do that.
Nice to see the new batch is on par with the others more or less
It’s solid. Great with a cigar.
Fast Forward to Nov 2023.LCBO has batch#4 on sale for $65.85. Bought a few for reserve. Saving 1 to be opened in my trip to Hong Kong. I'm afraid they might turn away from the intensity so I think it's better to bring a small 200 to 375ml of the regular Alberta Premium in order to get them warm up.
Didn't get the chance to try Batch 1 but really enjoyed 2 and 3. For some reason on Batch 3 I find this note or character similar to some Texas whiskies which I love. Cheers! 🥃
Definitely good stuff.
I’m sipping on batch 3 tonight (63.7 ABV) and wanted to watch a review comparing it with other Alberta Premium CS Ryes (I’ve also got batch 2, but I’m not sipping it tonight).
For me, the nose is super sweet with confectionary white sugar, cotton candy, with lots of pepper (maybe cinnamon) and a little bit of fruit (like an orange citrus). On the palate, I pick up all that black pepper that fades to burnt cinnamon and caramel. It’s still really sweet but, for me, the baking spices are what shines through on the taste. It does have that minty burn with that sugary confectionary flavor as well. The finish is kinda buttery/oily and after the black pepper/cinnamon flavors subside, I get notes of red apple and juicy fruit gum which makes my mouth water for a minute or so after each sip. And yet, it’s still rather drying… it’s like my mouth is watery (saliva) but my tongue is super dry.
Thanks for the review and letting me sip along with you. Cheers!
Batch 3 just showed up in my area. I may have to pick it up now. Thanks for the review.
5 years old is report. Batch 2 selling for 34.99 here in pa. I bought bottle went tried it went back for 2 more bottles.
All batches have been solid so far
I always wondered just how close these batches were and if it's necessary to own all of them. Thanks for your review. Cheers, Rob 🥃🇨🇦
They’re pretty close. A lot will like 3 best.
Loved the 1 and 3. Thanks buddy
Thanks brother
Gotta still open my batch 1. Or maybe I’ll just come have some of yours 😂. Great review as usual brother. Digging that t-shirt too man! Cheers🤘🏼🥂
Thanks brother. Anytime.
Great video Rob, thanks!!
Cheers
Great walk through Rob. I still like the first one the most, but then the 3rd, followed by the 2nd. I did do a blind between the 1 and 2, but sadly I am out of 2 so I cannot do a blind across all through.
The two isn’t as good as the others I think.
Scored two bottles of batch 3 🔥
OH TEACH ! ! THIS IS DA BOMB (of a review) ! ! . . . just what i am waiting for . . . ((pls also do the Lot 40 thing + peated + ...)) {{ Europeans are paying 200 pops (133 euros) for our rye APCS bottles ! ! see whisky jason . . .}}
Thanks buddy. I’ll do my best.
Enjoying batch 3 as I watched this. Great stuff but couldn’t agree with you more…..batch 1 was slightly better in my opinion. Cheers buddy!
Thanks for dropping by Rob. Ya it’s hard to know unless they’re side by side. Let’s grab a drink soon. Cheers.
What brand of glasses did you use?
For the most part glencarin
Still searching for those apricots in Batch 1....but I've never gotten apricots on anything. Regardless it is a great dram. The price is creeping up though....
It does seem to be creeping a bit
are these plastic tops or cork?
Yes. Twist off if I remember correctly
I really enjoy a cask strength. Makes a 40% feel extremely boring.
Agreed.
this vs Lot 40 rye?
This
All I get from batch # 2 is cinnamon.
Interesting
$300.00 @ shop near me, in New Jersey. 😵🐂💩
Brutal
wtf, its 66$ in BC. its not worth 300
I was hunting around NJ last spring and the price kept going up $99, $129, $199 until I heard the Jim Murray fact and I bought batch 2 for $75. The shop that gave me the info is always $15 over priced. But they really didn't gouge, sort of annoying but they have a few interesting bottles. Glad to have the bottle even though it's NOT whisky of Any Year. I'm in downstate NY and they do some sweeter 100% ryes here that should get some love. Taconic and Fort Hamilton are just 2 that I have in Cask strength that have more body and depth of character than 66%. No love for batch 2.
What a journey!
