Why aren’t there so many songs about Grainbows? Probably because the folks at Shelter Point, over on Vancouver Island, only cooked up this triple-grain expression recently. The inclusion of rye and wheat, in addition to the traditional malted barley, promises to ratchet the flavour up a few notches. Finishing this 7-year-old whisky in French oak after ex-bourbon casks will only add to the depth.
Tasting Notes
Single cask edition 5. Whisky is poetry, but it’s also alchemy. Here at Shelter Point we’re always in search of the perfect elixir. This whisky journey began when we married together a blend of malted barley, unmalted barley and rye whisky. Aged in an ex-bourbon cask, then finished in French oak, this seven-year-old whisky is a bottle of gold at the end of the grainbow.
