Tangle Ridge is marketed by Jim Beam Brands

The Canadian whisky category is positioned for growth, especially with

the increase of ultra-premium Canadian whiskies like Tangle Ridge

and Pendletons Whisky Tangle Ridge is a blended Canadian Whisky

and was named after Mary Schaeffer, a Canadian explorer who

discovered Tangle Ridge, a limestone wall that has since become a

landmark in the Canadian Rockies.

Made completely with rye, Tangle Ridge Whisky is the only Canadian

whisky that uses the Double Casked method of flavoring and aging.

After the whisky has aged for 10 years in, oak barrels it is dumped

and then blended with a hint of sherry and a touch of vanilla.

The whisky is then recasked, allowing flavors to mingle before

bottling.

Double casked" and aged 10 years, Tangle Ridge Whisky represents

part of the next generation of Canadian whisky expressions.

A small brand with big possibilities, Tangle Ridge represents one of

the most promising opportunities for Canadian whisky -- the market

for "hand-crafted" superpremiums.

Introduced in 1996, shipments of Tangle Ridge Whisky were up more

than 50% in 1999 over the previous year (albeit from a small base).

Tangle Ridge is aimed at the 25- to 44-year-old consumer. The brand

is demonstrating particular strength in the New York, Texas,

Washington, Wisconsin, North Carolina and the Indiana markets.

Tangle Ridge Rye Whisky

A pure rye aged ten years in oak, then blended with a bit of sherry

and other flavours, recasked and left to mellow.

It has burnt caramel and butterscotch aromas, with a rich ultra velvety

smooth sweetness on the palate and hints of sherry. Just lacks on

complexity and depth.
