If you’re going to go anywhere in the city on your trek for the best whiskey, you’ve gotta start at the Emmet Ray.
Not only do they carry 230 of them, they are kind enough to list all of their them on their website. http://www.theemmetray.com/menu/whisky/
Select from bourbon whiskeys, American, Canadian, Irish and World whiskies, Single Malt Scotch from the Higlands, Lowlands, Campbeltown and Islands, Scotch Blends and Top Shelf brands.
They even have whisky pairings for every dish, which happens to fall under the best category ever – “locally driven comfort food.”
If your way to warm yourself during the winter is with a little scotch and a lot of live jazz, this Dufferin Grove charmer is the place to do it. Pull up a seat at the bar and strike up a conversation with one of the performing musicians, or take over the crushed velvet couches and armchairs by the front window and spend an evening people-watching the bustling College Street strip.
Named after a fabled jazz musician, the Emmet Ray is the ideal spot for any whisky aficionados in your party. With over 230 different whiskies from all over the world, a wide assortment of beers, ciders and liqueurs, and a menu featuring items like Curry Roti and Deep Dish Pizza, it really makes for a good time. Enjoy the live entertainment in the backroom or the bar area, or while away the evening in the quieter front “living room” with a glass of your favourite spirit in hand. Last call is at 3 am!
