Crown Royal Single Malt, 45%

Price: 55 Issue: Winter 2024 Reviewer: Julia Higgins Category: Canadian

The nose is delicately sweet and malty, along with a backbone of soft fruitiness, balancing Frosted Flakes and powdered sugar with green apple and strawberry-banana smoothie. Those malt and fruit-forward qualities carry forth on the palate, which is lightweight but flavorful with cinnamon applesauce, shortbread cookie, and chocolate chip-banana bread at the fore. Smooth sailing on the finish; all in all this is a perfectly pleasant sugary sipper that should appeal to most.
