Minnesota-Based Prestige Drinks Group Picks Up Windsor Canadian Whisky
Minnesota-based Prestige Beverage Group announced today that it has acquired the Windsor Canadian Whisky brand from Beam Suntory. The iconic Windsor Canadian brand is one of the top selling Canadian Whiskies in the United States.
