crown royal® vanilla whisky

If you like vanilla...

If you like vanilla and you like Canadian whisky, well, you'll love Crown Royal Vanilla, which is a "best of both worlds" experience. Mind you, it's nothing you'll be writing postcards about, but rather a vanilla-heavy experience that borders on marshmallow-sweet (and -flavored) at times. The heavy sugariness of the experience isn't a deal-breaker, and given the intention of this whisky to be used as a mixer, not a sipper, it'll fit right in with cola or another simple combo. (See below for more cocktail ideas.) Light mixed berry notes add a touch of complexity on the back end, along with some simple milk chocolate character and just the lightest hint of woody barrel char — but by and large this is a showcase for sweet vanilla syrup from start to finish. That's not a bad thing, I suppose. All told, this is nothing that will blow your mind, but there's nothing not to like here, either

This is a good...

This is a good flavored whiskey. It is great by itself, or you could make a nice mixed drink with it. It had a good flavor. It's pretty affordable.
