Over the years, I remotely acquired some Shelter Point whiskies. First I had to get them from Vancouver to Winnipeg. Then from Winnipeg to Nurnberg. And then for some, from Nurnberg to Mumbai!

Why bring Canadian whiskies halfway around the world? We have a few Whisky Ladies who have followed their journey from the 1st bottle of their inaugural batch that Patrick Evans kindly gifted us in 2016. We were captivated by their Single Malts from this farm to cask distillery in British Columbia. So it was only fitting that I share more recent releases. I was all primed to offer a trio in January 2024, however then the original folks familiar with Shelter Point – including a fellow Canadian – could not join. So I decided to postpone for another opportunity.

It was tough deciding which three to bring… What did I pick?

• Shelter Point “The Collective” 5 year (2020) 46% – Their original blend celebrating The Collective preferences of the Shelter Point folks with 5 casks matured at least 5 years
• Shetler Point “Double Barrel” (2021) Blackberry Wine Finish 6th Edition 46% – I missed an earlier edition, so keen to try!
• Shelter Point 10 year (2021) 1st Edition 57.8% – And who could resist their inaugural 10th year cask strength edition

Curious to learn more? Just wait a few days to read tasting notes about our collective impressions!

Spoiler alert! We found three distinctive elements in all the whiskies we tried: Sunshine, sea salt, a herbaceous quality. Delicious.
