Copper & Cask 20-Year Hazmat Cigar Blend is a blended Canadian whisky that was matured for two decades and made up of only fifteen barrels. The whisky was first matured for nineteen years in the original barrels in Alberta, Canada, before being blended in micro-batches and re-barreled in a combination of Tawny Port and Armagnac casks. After a few months of finishing, the whisky is married together before bottling.

The result is a complex, memorable 145.2-proof whisky that begins with a nose of ripe fruits, candied orange peels, vanilla beans, and light spices. The palate is a mix of ripe berries, dried cherries, sticky toffee pudding, vanilla beans, and chocolate. It’s big and bold and deserves to be enjoyed neat or with a splash or two of water to open up the nose and palate.
