Tasting Notes
One of the most widely ordered middle-shelf pours, Crown Royal has earned itself a distinguished place amongst sub-$30 bottles.
The nose is uncomplicated. Sweet vanilla candies, werther’s candy, light notes of spiced oak. The body is smooth and creamy. The palate has notes of caramel creams, rye, oak, and apple peel. The finish is, again, straightforward. Maplewood peaks through followed by notes of charred oak and rye.
Smooth pour. Great if you can find it on drink specials, and affordable enough to be happily enjoyed on ice, straight, or mixed.
