From The CBC/Canada: 'Alberta Premium Cask Strength' produced by Alberta Distillers,

named 'World Whisky of The Year'.

Yes, yet another worthy distraction from all things tRUMP!

from article:

A smooth, Canadian whisky made in Calgary has been named best in the world by the prestigious Jim Murray's Whisky Bible.

'Alberta Premium Cask Strength' produced by Calgary-based Alberta Distillers, was named 'World Whisky of the Year,' by Murray in his Whisky Bible 2021.

George Teichroeb, general manager of Alberta Distillers, told CBC's The Homestretch that the news is still sinking in.

"It's incredible, we're still feeling the effects of the news," Teichroeb said. "And I don't know if it's fully sinking yet. We knew and we released it that we would be shaking things up maybe a little bit in the Canadian whisky market, but to be called World Whisky of the Year -- wow."
