Royal Reserve Whisky

LCBO 95968, $27.20

One of the vintage brands in the Canadian whisky lexicon, this light but aromatic rye has a slightly astringent, dry finish that’s a perfect foil to ginger ale. The iconic label still peels off cleanly for sticking onto your favourite accoutrement of choice—it has long graced everything from toolboxes to guitar cases country-wide.
