So I went to the liquor store this morning seeking something to bring to my neighbor's Kentucky Derby party this afternoon and I saw something I never saw before in the local package store- Piehole. It's apparently an import from Canada, a bottled blend of Canadian whiskey and Cherry Pie Liquer. Intrigued, I purchased a bottle, thinking it would be an ideal shot liquor that will enhance, rather than clash with, the pitcher of mint julep my neighbor will be serving. Was this a good idea? What should I expect from this Piehole? Looks like its 35% alcohol/70 proof.

To each their own but I think it tastes like cough syrup but women tend to like it more than men.
Next year bring a bottle of Woodford and you will get a nod and a wink from the KY (assuredly gentleman) host.

Like I said to each their own but I respect you checking an International escort board among mixed company
I suspect it is a product that you will see today and will be gone tomorrow. Probably just Canadian whiskey and soda stream cherry flavoring. Just add some grenadine to your whiskey and you will probably have the same product.
Recently purchased another Canadian import I was impressed with, Gran Gala:

Very good value orange brandy liquer. Smooth, unique taste. Comparable to the French Mathilde and Grand Marnier, although better tasting IMHO.
Any of you guys tried it? Popular in Canada?

I think Gran Gala is superior to Cointreau and Triple Sec in this class of liqueurs. It’s more comparable to Grand Marnier but with better price point. I am very surprised to hear it’s not sold in Quebec as it’s being marketed as distinctively Canadian albeit made with an Italian brandy. The brandy component distinguishes Grand Marnier and Gran Gala from Cointreau and Triple Sec, which do not have brandy as its base ingredient.
For the vodka lovers see if you can locate Unruley vodka, made in BC from honey..... Gives Grey Goose a good run for the money.
On the Cointreau bottle is a recipe for 50/50 Cointreau/Cognac, you can splash it with 7up. Add a cherry and twist of lemon.
