Using the same Barrel Select technique of blending individually aged corn, rye, and barley whiskies, Copper Pot takes it one step further by further aging in oak and is bottled a slightly higher proof than some other Canadian Whiskies.
This Copper Pot reserve is a full bodied and tasty whisky with a lot of interesting things to offer and helps build a whole new image of Canadian whisky for me.
The initial fireworks complete, figgy dark fruit and nutty milk chocolate swirl capriciously over fragrant spring flowers, soft vanilla, and delicate herbal maple syrup. Dramatic and delightful.

House Review
Nose:
Sweet maple, honey, vanilla, mocha. Overall, sweet but muted.
Taste:
Light mouthfeel, no heat. Faint sugar. Not as sweet as the Apple. Definitely sweet though. Salted caramel, cocoa, mocha. Really strange.
Finish:
Short, lots of cocoa, maple, salted caramel, toffee and vanilla. Sweet finish.
Overall:
I don't really know what this is. I think it could be Crown Salted Caramel, but this isn't as cloying or sweet as the Apple, so that leads me to think not. Guessing its a whiskey with some added sweetness.
