Crown Royal

...gets an acorn once in a while." Also Sprach my father once to his sightless boss. Fortunately he was on very good terms with his boss at the time

Usually I find minis to be at least a bit suspect for quality, and usually standard Crown Royal bores me to tears. This review is yet another to highlight the variation and surprise that can be found in the world of whisky. This review is from one of many minis I bought on the cheap ($ 1.09 including the tax is about 1/3 what a Crown Royal mini costs in Ontario, Canada) for their re-usable plastic bottles, sturdy for re-use on long trips

Nose: very spicy with rye baking spice flavours, very sweet...really a fine Canadian whisky nose

Taste: my, oh my! I've never had standard Crown Royal taste so good! Very spicy, crisp, and sweet, fairly decent wood, and the slightest hint of wine flavours...and this, from a mini!

Finish: medium to medium-long; it stays quite nice for the duration

Balance: standard Crown Royal should always taste like this. Sadly I do not expect it to...it never has before....
