Signal Hill is proud to announce that Founders Select Overproof was awarded Blended Canadian Whisky of the Year AND took home a Gold Medal at the 2025 Canadian Whisky Awards last night in Vancouver!
Held annually since 2010 during the Victoria Whisky Festival, the Canadian Whisky Awards recognizes the best Canadian whiskies. An independent panel of 14 judges tasted and scored around 200 competing whiskies in blind tastings based on ranking criteria that reflect the industry’s highest standards.
The Canadian Whisky Awards is fully independent of the Canadian whisky industry. Only whiskies that were distilled and matured in Canada are eligible to compete.

Signal Hill Founders Select Overproof Whisky is a blend cherished for its classic taste, with an impressive ABV of 56.3%. It pays homage to historical whisky norms while setting itself apart with a robust flavour profile that demands attention.
It is crafted in the signature Signal Hill Whisky style, using only the highest-quality corn and barley. The spirits are aged in three types of barrels: Canadian whisky, new white oak, and bourbon. This meticulous blending process results in a rich amber appearance and deep layers of flavour waiting for you to discover. Signal Hill is not only a premium Canadian whisky, but it is also 100% Canadian-owned.
