ROBBIE BURNS SINGLE-BARREL WHISKY

Odd Society Spirits is celebrating the life of Scottish poet Robert Burns in style with a limited edition single malt whisky release!

On Thursday, January 19, a special single barrel release is coming from Odd Society Spirits in honour of Robbie Burns Day (Jan. 25). While inspecting and tasting their aging whiskies, distillers Gordon Glanz and Joel McNichol came upon a perfect single barrel. Aged for 5.5 years in ex-bourbon and American white oak barrels, this single malt is just right on its own—blending this whisky with another barrel would just upset the balance.

Odd Society Spirits Robbie Burns Canadian Whisky is the distillery’s first ever single barrel release, and its first five-year-old whisky. This unicorn batch hits all the right notes of dark honey, leather, and lemony citrus, with a whiff of smoke imparted from the addition of Scottish peat in the finishing process.

Packaged in 750 mL bottles at 46% ABV, and priced at $76, Odd Society Spirits Robbie Burns Canadian Whisky is a distillery exclusive, and will be available online, and at the tasting lounge and bottle shop (1725 Powell Street), starting at 3pm on Thursday, January 19.

Odd Society + Wild Thing Mushroom Whisky

Odd Society Spirits + Wild Thing Community Collaboration Porcini & Candy Cap Mushroom Single Malt Whisky

 

Odd Society is launching a new whisky series called ‘Community Collaborations’. We’ve once again enlisted Shwa Keirstead and David Arias to create a beautiful label depicting these convivial adventures. As with previous collaborations, we explore new flavour combinations with friends and neighbors.

Our first release is a porcini & candy cap mushroom single malt whisky made in collaboration with Wild Thing Snack Bar. In celebration of the opening of Wild Thing’s second location (2420 Main St.), and a shared love of mushrooms, Odd Society’s Joel McNichol and Fraser Pick teamed up with friends Todd Graham and Kody Abrams of Wild Thing to produce a Porcini and Candy Cap Mushroom Single Malt Whisky using mushrooms sourced by David Xiao of Oyster & King.

 

On the nose, the whisky presents rich notes of butter and dark brown sugar. The first sip reveals a captivating viscosity and a hint of praline pecans balanced with a subtle savoury and woodsy undertone that is further unearthed in its lingering finish. It’s seriously delicious.

Odd Society Spirits + Wild Thing Community Collaboration Porcini & Candy Cap Mushroom Single Malt Whisky will be on the Wild Thing and Odd Society cocktail menus starting Thursday, November 3.

Bottles will also be available at the distillery and select liquor stores starting Thursday, November 3. Packaged in 375 ml bottles and priced at $45, there will be a limit of 2 bottles per person at the distillery. Liquor store prices will vary.

This limited release will be available through our online store shortly after, starting Sunday, November 6.

Maple Rye Whisky—With Dad in Mind

A TRULY CANADIAN SPIRIT FOR DADS WITH A HEART OF GOLD
Odd Society Spirits set to release Maple Rye Whisky in advance of Father’s Day

The maple syrup is flowing—what better time of year for Odd Society Spirits to release their limited-edition Maple Rye Whisky! Available with two weeks to spare for Father’s Day shopping, Odd Society’s Maple Rye can be purchased at the distillery (1725 Powell St., Vancouver) starting Thursday, June 2, and online with Canada-wide shipping as of Sunday, June 5, 2022.

Odd Society Spirits started making maple whisky in 2015 by aging single malt in ex-maple syrup casks that had previously been used to age bourbon. But rye is the quintessential Canadian spirit, so distiller Joel McNichol put new-make 100% BC grown rye spirit in maple syrup casks for this exclusive release and waited almost four years for it to age, then blended in a small amount of maple-smoked single malt to soften the edges. The resulting whisky is robust and spicy, with notes of cassia, dried apricots and toasted marshmallow, with a lingering silky maple finish.

Odd Society’s past expression of maple whisky made with single malt was recently recognized with Gold at the 2022 Canadian Whisky Awards, plus winning Best New Whisky and Best Barrel Finished Whisky. Although their Maple Single Malt is currently sold out, a new batch is expected to be ready for release in November 2022.

Packaged in 375 mL bottles at 46% ABV, Odd Society Maple Rye Whisky will be sold individually for $40 and available for purchase at the distillery (1725 Powell St., Vancouver) with a limit of two bottles per person, and private liquor stores (price may vary) across B.C. starting June 2. Online sales for in-store pickup, local delivery, and Canada-wide shipping start on June 5.
