Crown Royal Deluxe Canadian Whisky
Crown Royal Deluxe Canadian Whisky (750mL, 40% ABV / 80 proof) is the original expression of Canada's most famous whisky — a masterful blend of 50 full-bodied whiskies, presented in the iconic purple bag.
Crafted at the Crown Royal distillery in Gimli, Manitoba, Deluxe begins with a corn-based whisky distilled in towering Coffey stills, then blended with pot-distilled rye and barley flavoring whiskies. Each component is aged in charred American oak barrels before master blenders marry them into the silky, approachable profile that made Crown Royal a global icon, first created in 1939 to honor the royal visit of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth.

Why buy it here: It is the benchmark Canadian whisky — equally at home neat, on the rocks or as the backbone of a Whisky Sour or highball. Del Mesa Liquor keeps it in stock and ships it fast.
How to enjoy: The classic Crown & cola, a Crown Royal Old Fashioned, or simply neat — its smoothness needs no mixer to shine.
