Detail
No one knowns for sure what the V.O in Seagram Canadian V.O. Rye Whiskey stands for, some think its for very old, but family speculates that it actually stands for Very Own. Nonetheless, this whisky blend created for Joseph E. Seagrams own family, to celebrate his sons upcoming marriage. Upon tasting the special blend, everyone insisted it be put on the market and sure enough it went on to become one of Seagrams biggest sellers. Earlier bottlings of the VO carried an age-statement of 6 years although new iterations of the popular whisky have been replaced with a no-age-statement blend. This has changed the taste a bit, but not the quality. Notes: Smooth, medium-bodied. Aromas and flavors of caramel, apricot, lemon oak and coffee Pairings: Duck, grilled mushrooms, pecan pie Serving Suggestions: On the rocks or mixed into your favorite cocktail Region: Canada Alcohol Content: 40%
