Canadian Whisky Is Way Better Than You Think http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articl...than-you-think

"... практически все расценивают вызывающее вопросы решение Джима Маррея поставить ржаному канадскому виски Crown Royal Northern Harvest 97.5 баллов из 100 в его новом ежегоднике Whisky Bible, как желание привлечь внимание к себе и к своей книге."

Тут нормальная, спокойная
статья на тему. Где Мюррей защищает свой выбор:
...Murray defended his choice robustly: "Last year people were shocked when I gave [Japanese whisky] Yamazaki the award - until they tasted it. Then they saw it was not the affront to Scotch they first thought and something truly extraordinary.
"This year, doubtless there will be many more eyebrows raised because rarely is Canada mentioned when it comes to the world's top whiskies. But, again, I have no doubt people finding the bottling I tasted will be blown away with this whisky's uncompromising and unique beauty. It certainly puts the rye into Canadian rye."
Разумеется это one man's opinion.
Ну и вот тут хорошо написано:
Tom Sandham, one half of the Thinking Drinkers, said: "The news of a Canadian winner might surprise some, but it shouldn't.
"The country has extraordinary whisky heritage. And rye is one of the original grains in North American whiskey production, it has long been re-asserting itself with connoisseurs and leading bartenders who use it in classic cocktails. So to see it break through here is evidence of the grains's resurgent popularity.
"But remember this is only one view, and a nice bit of publicity for man, brand and whisky as a whole, but the only way you'll determine what you like is if you try things. Lots of different things. The great thing about whisky is that a wider demographic is now engaging, which is excellent because there are hundreds of stunning whiskies being made all around the world right now."

В нормальном виски-сообществе Мюррея уже давно никто в серьёз не воспринимает.

А вот тут интересно. Что такое "нормальное виски-сообщество".
