Lot 40

Ontario, Canada · 1998'den beri

Lot 40 stands as one of Canada's most distinctive expressions of rye whisky craftsmanship, drawing its name from the parcel of land in Harwich, Ontario, where the distiller's ancestors once cultivated rye in the 19th century. Produced at Hiram Walker & Sons in Windsor, Ontario, it is crafted from 100% rye grain and distilled in copper pot stills — a process that sets it apart from the column-distilled blends that dominate the Canadian whisky landscape. The result is a spirit of genuine character: bold spice from the rye, a warm undercurrent of vanilla and oak, and a lingering finish that rewards patience. Originally released in the late 1990s and revived in subsequent years, Lot 40 played a meaningful role in rekindling international appreciation for single rye Canadian whisky at a time when the category was largely overlooked. It occupies a rare space — rooted in agricultural heritage yet thoroughly alive on the modern palate.
