— It turns out some of Canada’s best-made whisky comes from a small town just northwest of Regina. Last Mountain Distillery in Lumsden has been named the 2019 Micro Distillery of the Year at the annual Canadian Whisky Awards in Victoria. Its single cask whisky was also awarded a gold medal. Master distiller Braeden Raiwet credits Saskatchewan’s natural ingredients for helping Last Mountain’s products to stand out. Raiwet also says the distillery makes some extraordinary libations, such as a 100 per cent wheat whisky.
