Signal Hill's concept started in 2014, when two Canadian industry veterans decided to combine their decades of knowledge and experience with global whisky brands to create a unique blend. Micheal Booth, who long retired from Hiram Walker spent 2 years creating over 40 different blends before finalising Signal Hill. The name Signal Hill took inspiration from one of Canada's most famous and historic landmarks - the Signal Hill. The Canadian whisky uses some of Canada's finest ingredients, including the purest water from New Foundland, which is named one of the best water sources in the world. The product is made at the famous Hiram Walker distillery in Windsor, Ontario.
