Crown Royal Cask No. 16, 40%
Price: ● Issue: Spring 2008 ● Reviewer: John Hansell ● Category: Canadian
Crown Royal has always been a very stylish, silky smooth whisky. This bottling adds a new dimension in flavor and texture with its cognac cask finishing. A velvety smooth whisky with notes of creamy vanilla, butterscotch, nougat, dried fruit, and gentle spice are well-defined and nicely balanced. Gently sweet, fruity finish. Crown Royal's best effort to date.
