Alberta's first single malt whisky being distilled

[Quaich1]

Eau Claire Distillery hopes to have a quality whisky ready to sell in about 3 years.


"This is the first single malt distillery in Alberta. Which is ironic, really, because we are the greatest grain producer in the world. We produce barley that we ship to Scotland so they can make scotch, so it's unusual that it's taken this long to get a single malt facility in the province," Eau Claire president David Farran said.
