Yukon Jack 100 Proof Canadian Whisky
Yukon Jack 100 Proof Canadian Whisky is the legendary 100-proof Canadian honey liqueur — 50% ABV, 750ml — a bold blend of Canadian whisky and honey that the brand itself calls "The Black Sheep of Canadian Liquors." Rugged, untamed, and far stronger than typical honey liqueurs, it is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor.

- Size: 750ml
- Style: Canadian whisky-based honey liqueur (brand classifies it as a liqueur)
- Origin: Canada — Yukon Jack (est. 1968; Sazerac-owned), named for the Yukon Territory
- Signature serve: The Snakebite — Yukon Jack Original + lime juice, "the shot that bites back"
100 Proof of Bad Decisions (the Good Kind)
Most honey liqueurs hover around 60–70 proof and drink like candy. Yukon Jack went the other way: a full 100 proof of whisky-and-honey heat, bold enough to stand up in any shot ritual since 1968. It is less a liqueur than a dare in a bottle. Join the black sheep in the Yukon Jack collection, compare Canadian whiskies, or build a cocktail with real backbone.
Tasting Notes
Per brand-consistent copy: bold yet unexpectedly smooth — honey, citrus, and vanilla-spice over the whisky base, with a long, warming finish. The 100-proof strength keeps the sweetness in check.
How to Enjoy
The Snakebite: Yukon Jack Original with a splash of lime juice, shot-style. It also works as a high-octane Hot Toddy base and adds muscle to apple-cider cocktails in the fall.
