CANADIAN WHISKEY CLICK ON PRODUCT TO ORDER OR FOR MORE INFORMATION. Canadian whiskey dominance, and in particular Seagram's, can be attributed to prohibition. During this infamous dry period in US history, Canadian whiskey literally poured down the hill into America's illicit speakeasies. After prohibition was abolished in 1933, the Federal Alcohol Administration allocated the importation of 3,314,443 gallons of whiskey (we're guessing for medicinal purposes). Most of this came from Canada. The results of this boon can be seen in the various buildings, libraries, and hospitals in downtown Montrčal bearing the name Bronfman, the founding family of Seagram's. The most popular brands of Canadian whiskey, Crown Royal, Seagram's V.O. and C.C. and are called for in bars all over the world. For beginning whiskey drinkers, these are the lightest and easiest whiskeys to swallow. |
