I, being Canadian, of course like Canadian Whiskey also sometimes called Rye whiskey up here but it seems on an international level it is somewhat scorned and looked down upon by many as not being in the same class as Scotch, Irish and Bourbon whiskey.
Why is this?? Is it just poor marketing by Canadian Spirits companies?? Snobbery??
I've run across several derogatory remarks by afficianados who seem to think that people who like this spirit have uneducated and/or unsophisticated palates.
Not trying to start a whiskey fight, just trying to understand.
Perhaps our American and British friends can comment?
