Prices are shown in U.S. dollars for a 750 mL bottle. This Canadian-market release did not have an official U.S. MSRP. Its original Canadian retail price was C$49.95, so $49.99 is used as an estimated original U.S. price based on its historical market positioning. A bottle sold at a Canadian auction for C$275 in 2022. Because reliable recent sales are limited, approximately $225 to $375 represents a reasonable secondary-market estimate. Specialist-store prices may reach approximately $300 to $450 depending on condition, fill level, packaging, taxes, and seller markup.
Flavor Profile
Crisp oak, ripe berries, plum, vanilla, and toffee lead the aroma. The palate develops maple syrup, dark chocolate, cedar, ginger, clove, nutmeg, white pepper, and concentrated rye spice. The finish is long, warm, and dry, with lingering oak, citrus peel, smoke, pepper, and gentle sweetness.
