Crown Royal Reserve

Nose- Light vanilla with butterscotch. Prickly rye with honey. Sour citrus with grapefruit peel. Bitter, dry feel.

Taste- Sweet with vanilla and honey. Hints of chocolate. Altogether quiet mouth feel with a little heat.

Finish- Buttery corn explosion. Medium length. Dries to nothing.

Comment- We expected more from a “Reserve” title. The taste was a highlight but all in all we found CR Reserve to be a drinkable but quiet whisky that’s trying to be bigger than we found it to be.
