Hello November! You know what that means... New Dram Fine Gems! We just got back from the BC Craft Whisky Weekend, where we enjoyed some delicious Canadian Whisky and a great tasting led by Reece Sims. C'mon the women in whisky! YAS!
If you're based in Edmonton head over to Sherbrooke Liquor and you'll spot our logo on the whisky shelves. Our latest 'Dram Fine Gems' have been selected and we think they are a bunch of fabulous drams to sip this spooky season.
If you're not based in Edmonton, that doesn't stop these being great whisky suggestions for any budget, and we love sharing our love of the drams with you all.
We won't make you wait any longer... scroll for them gems.
