I've always made my Old Fashioneds and Manhattans with Canadian rye instead of bourbon. Canadian Club is my preferred cocktail rye.
But here in Boston, we're like from Southern Canada, eh ya'll?
Growing up, went to a lot of Bruins games (of course the entire team was from Canada), it was always great to see Gordie Howe and "Pie" McKenzie going at it in the corners, elbows up indeed!
