Canadian Club Whisky

Canadian Club, often referred to as CC, is a world-renowned brand of whisky that has become a staple in the spirits industry. Originally founded by Hiram Walker in 1858 in Detroit, Michigan, the production was moved across the river to Windsor, Ontario, to avoid the rising temperance movement in the United States and to benefit from the high-quality grains available in Canada.

Today, the whisky continues to be produced at the Hiram Walker & Sons Distillery in Windsor, Ontario. This location remains the primary manufacturing hub for the brand, ensuring that it maintains its authentic Canadian heritage and flavor profile that has been consistent for over a century.

The brand has undergone several changes in ownership throughout its history. It is currently owned by Beam Suntory, a subsidiary of the Japanese conglomerate Suntory Holdings. As of 2026 and moving forward, Canadian Club remains a flagship brand within the Beam Suntory portfolio, benefiting from Global distribution networks while maintaining its deep roots in Canadian distilling traditions.
