About this bottle

Canada’s wine makers garnered fame on the International scene with ice wine. So when a Glenora Distillery fan suggested that they experiment with ex-ice wine barrels, the Glen Breton Ice series was born. Nova Scotia’s Jost Vineyards supplied the ice wine barrels for finishing and Glenora supplied the cask-strength single malt whisky. This 17 year old whisky spent a brief four months in the ice wine casks. It is bottled in 250ml sized bottles and is not available for sale in the US.

The 3.77 score up top pulls the average toward its category until enough people have weighed in, so a handful of glowing reviews cannot outrank a thousand steady ones.
