Pike Creek 10 Years Canadian Whisky is an exquisite tipple that makes connoisseurs' hearts beat faster. This whisky matures for 10 years in former bourbon barrels, giving it its unmistakable aroma.

The combination of sweet vanilla aromas, spicy oak notes and a light fruitiness makes this whisky a real pleasure.

Pike Creek's Canadian origins stand for the highest quality and care in production. The climatic conditions in Canada contribute to the unique maturation of the whisky. The temperature fluctuations cause the whisky to expand and contract in the barrel, which intensifies and refines the aromas. With an alcohol content of 42% vol., this whisky offers an intense yet balanced taste experience.

Tasting Notes 

Nose : Sweet honey notes intertwined with the subtle allure of rum sweetness. All of this complemented by a touch of rye spice and a note reminiscent of Dutch speculaas spice. Hints of raisins, prunes, and oak in the background.

Palate : The sweetness prevails, reminiscent of caramel toffee apples, accompanied by a gentle heat of pepper, cardamom, and rye spices. Vanilla and cinnamon intertwine with delicate hints of dried fruit, citrus, and oak.  It has a medium body. A drop of water brings a bitter citrus note forward.

Finish : Short and soft, leaving lingering caramel, nutmeg, and cinnamon notes. The initial sweetness gives way to a delightful spiciness.
