In Surrey, British Columbia, LohinâŻMcâŻKinnonâŻWhisky is the result of an unlikely alliance between two men who could outâbrew and outâdistil most of the pretentious hobbyists youâll ever meet. GaryâŻLohin, a brewing virtuoso with a quarterâcentury of experience and three World BeerâŻCup medals hanging on his wall like trophies, brings the precision of a seasoned alchemist. Across the table sits StuartâŻMcKinnon, a Scotsman whose decade at Central City has taught him that patience and a good copper pot are worth more than a thousand Instagram posts (the duoâs partnership feels more like a wellâtimed duet than a gimmick).
The product line is nothing short of a masterclass in singleâmalt ambition. Their Niagara Wine Barrel Whisky, for instance, marries the buttery smoothness of a classic malt with the audacious character imparted by Ontario wine barrels, delivering a sip that feels both familiar and daring. The whiskyâs flavor profile is distinctive, the character unmistakably unique, and the overall experience is, quite simply, amazingly good. In short, these guys have managed to combine the best of brewing and distilling into a spirit that stands out in a crowded market without resorting to empty hype.
Lohin McKinnon's single malt whiskey is widely praised for its distinct character, leaving reviewers impressed with its unique flavor profile, which sets it apart from other whiskeys.
