The James Bay Distilling Galloping Goose Canadian Whisky is a new offering from the distillery that will provide consumers with a high-quality spirit that is perfect for enjoyment on its own or in their favorite cocktail recipes. The product has been nicknamed "the Blue Goose" for its blue labels and features the brand's Galloping Goose Canadian Whisky that has been further aged for 12 months in oak barrels. These barrels previously held bourbon for four years and cognac for seven, which will help to impart distinct flavors that are deep, rich and help to enhance it as a perfect option for sipping.
The James Bay Distilling Galloping Goose Canadian Whisky is being made available from the distillery directly in Washington as well as online.
