Batch 010 embodies our vision for Canadian wheaters - old corn and younger wheat. While corn deeply benefits from decades of aging, we find that wheat quickly ages out of its unique buttery and minty profile. Because bourbon is made by combining the grains before distillation and maturation, wheated bourbon producers are stuck constantly compromising, either over aging the wheat or under aging the corn.
In contrast, Batch 010 uses a combination of two 23 year old corn components and a 19 year corn component as the foundation of the blend. Making up 66% of the whisky, these super-aged corn components provide the thick, viscous structure and the resonant layer of brown sugar and baking spices that come with age. This structure compliments the vibrant buttery quality and luscious mintiness from the 29% 8 year old wheat, achieving the ebullience of wheat and the elegance of ancient corn.
Batch 010 features a new component and a new grain - a 9 year old malted barley aged in New American Oak. Even at 5% of the blend, the malted barley brings oiliness and rich layers of semi-sweet chocolate, creating a new dynamic within our conception of a Canadian wheater.

Batch 010 does not flit or faulter. It presents a balanced harmony, a chorus of integrated notes that move inexorably from nose to landing to palate to finish. The nose promises a melody of vanilla wafer, toffee and semi-sweet chocolate chips, transporting you to a Sicilian cafe serving affogato over coffee gelato. The countermelody echoes hints of plum, shortbread, rock candy and a sweet resonant whisper of orange zest.
Batch 010 lands with a rumbling cinnamon sugar note, layered upon Irish buttered toast, harkening back to its Batch 005 heritage. The initial creamy texture resolves into a gripping brown sugar viscosity while the crackling wood-spiced tannin emerges towards the finish. The evolving mouthfeel mingles beautifully with notes of fat toasted marshmallow and malted chocolate cake. The lingering finish settles into your chest with spicy honey butter, perfumed mahogany and oiled cedar, before it hits a final reverberant nutmeg and mint note that plunges into the depths of your soul.
