The First Crown Royal Single Malt
For 85 years Crown Royal built its name on blending — up to 50 whiskies in the flagship Deluxe. The Single Malt breaks that mold: one distillery, one grain, ten years in cask, and a 90-proof bottling that stands taller than anything in the core range. Distilled "in the Canadian cold" at Valleyfield and presented in the brand's new single-malt packaging, it is Crown Royal's bid to shake up the category it helped define.

Tasting Notes
Caramel and crisp apple on the nose with baking spices; the palate brings creamy vanilla, light banana and toasted oak, finishing with warm cinnamon spice that lingers.
How to Enjoy
Neat or with a few drops of water to open the malt character; at 90 proof it also makes a standout Rob Roy or a more serious whisky highball.
