There was a time in the annals of North American whiskey lore that a man by the name of Sam Bronfman played a pivotal role in the development of this brown spirit. Bronfman, also known as “Mister Sam,” was a Canadian businessman who came to have ownership of Seagram’s, at one time the largest and most successful distilled spirits company in the world. Now, in a tribute to him, spirits giant Sazerac has debuted the premium Mister Sam blended whiskey. The whiskey blend that is now a tribute to Bronfman was created by Sazerac’s Master Blender Drew Mayville, whose career included a 22 year stint at Seagram’s where he was the fourth and last master blender under the Seagram dynasty. Mayville is said to have had the vast array of Sazerac’s American and Canadian whiskey stocks at his disposal while developing this whiskey. “I was thrilled to be able to work on the blend for this exciting tribute whiskey,” said Mayville in a prepared statement. “Mister Sam was known to say ‘Distilling is a science; Blending is an art,’ and he’s right. Creating the elusive perfect blend is every bit about experimentation and precision. We’re very proud of the whiskey we’ve created.” Mister Sam is bottled at 122.6 proof and was put to glass at Sazerac’s Old Montreal Distillery in Canada. Specifics of the blend beyond the fact it is a mix of American and Canadian whiskeys were not released. Bottles of “Mister Sam” are presented in an elegant wooden box and included a copy of the legendary “From Little Acorns” book which Sam Bronfman penned in 1970 and which details the history of the Seagram’s company.

Country: Canada

Canada is not a country many people readily associate with wine production and vineyard cultivation, although it has been successfully producing a range of quality wines for over two hundred years. Many of the wineries in Canada are used exclusively for the production of ice wine, a special style of wine which involves allowing the grapes to freeze in the early frost, thus intensifying the sugars and natural flavors of the grapes. However, recent years have seen wineries in several parts of the country producing more traditional styles of wines, using a blend of traditional and modern techniques and methods to achieve excellent results. The vast majority of Canadian wineries are located in British Columbia and Ontario, although everywhere from Quebec to the shores of Lake Erie also have well established wineries producing characterful Canadian produce.
