Crown Royal Deluxe

TASTING NOTES:

• Colour: A warm and inviting amber with golden glints.
• Aroma: A rich nose with satisfying wafts of caramel, citrus, maple, orchard fruit, pine nuts, and vanilla.
• Taste: A famously smooth ride from creamy start to lengthy vanilla-tinged finish, with complex notes reminding you of the white oak barrels it so productively resided in for a time. Cherry, chocolate, citrus, and spice make this a deliciously rich tipple.

PRODUCER: The Crown Royal Company, owned by Diageo since 2000, still operating from its original site in Gimli, Manitoba.

COUNTRY: Canada.

PRODUCTION DETAILS: This three-year-aged blend of 50 Canadian whiskies has been a favoured staple of home and commercial bars since 1939. The recipe has not changed since this delicate blend was created in honour of a visit to Canada by Queen Elizabeth and King George VI. Just the name Crown Royal Deluxe conjures up the image of a sturdy yet elegant bottle nestled inside a distinctive velvety, royal purple sack. Produced in Canada using Canadian ingredients, Crown Royal Deluxe is one of the country's most venerable and respected exports. You can't go wrong with that classic Canadian cocktail, a Crown and Coke. Or try Crown Royal Deluxe in a shot glass with honey and lemon, microwaved for 15 seconds, as a comforting cold remedy.

ALCOHOL: 40%
