THUNDER BITCH LIQ CNMN CHILI 60

THUNDER BAY, WHERE THE LEGEND WAS BORN. More than 150 years ago, in the Canadian border town of Thunder Bay, one of the world’s best whiskies was born. Thunder Bay Canadian Whisky. Canadian whisky was a “must” in the U.S. during the Prohibition and became one of the Chicago mafia’s favorites. Smuggling whisky into the US during Prohibition was not an easy task… There was just one way to cross the border, across Lake Superior and to make it even harder, female dogs, “the bitches” were specially trained by the US border control police to sniff out and detect the whisky. Legend has it that the mafia confused the dogs by hiding the whisky in stacks of cinnamon and chili. This did two big favors to the world… First, the mafias spent more time drinking the good stuff instead of shooting each other and Second, thugs got inspired and started blending Canadian Whisky with the cinnamon and the chili. An irreverent blend was born and was called Thunder Bitch in honor of those “friendly” dogs.

Tasting Notes:
Spicy but well balanced with the sweetness and texture of cinnamon, which provides a very broad palate in which the notes of whisky and cinnamon persist intermixed with the spice.
