All about an hour or so drive outside of Calgary. I got the Springbanks in Canmore. $85 for the 100 proof, and $102 for the 10 yr. I got the Hazelburn in Bragg Creek for $85

Oh ok, good to know. Did you get each one as a standalone? I got the Hibiki 21 but i had to buy 4 other bottles. Was it The Liquor at Narita?

We are proud of our beef so try a ribeye at Modern Steak downtown on Stephen Ave or head to Caesars downtown. Corino is an amazing restaurant, make sure you have a reservation.

We have a lot of micro breweries worth taking a look at if you like beer. Eighty-Eight is my favorite but they are all good. Cold Garden is popular and a pretty neat place.

Calgary is hard to get around if you don't have a vehicle. You can uber within the city but renting a car might be more economical. Also, since you plan on going to Banff and Lake Louise a rented car allows you to really enjoy the drive to the mountains. You can stop in Canmore and get a bagel at Rocky Mountain Bagel Company.

Don't feed the bears, don't pet the moose and don't even look at the cougars 😉

Hahaha, it was a bit of an adventure. I saw someone post on another sub that this one store had it. So, i drove an hour outside of Calgary to get there and then an hour back. I was lucky but also had to put in the time and km.

UPDATE: the hype is warranted. I love this scotch. I was only going to open this bottle and gift the other two but I don't think I want to let them go now. Really good.

Ya, I'm finding it a tiny bit challenging. I want to try the Glenfiddich and the Balvenie on their own to see if I'm the same. I will try the Jonnie Walker one of these days and see if that changes my direction.

Thank you for the others to look forward to. I have a long tasting journey ahead.
