The year 1939 marked a special occasion for Canadian whisky, and this limited edition showcases a unique flavor journey. This Crown Royal Chocolate Flavored Whisky masterfully blends their signature smoothness with a delightful milk chocolate infusion, creating an accessible and indulgent experience. Best enjoyed as a dessert pour or in inventive cocktails, its sweet and creamy profile offers a novel twist on classic Canadian whisky.

Tasting Notes

Nose: A surprisingly delicate embrace of sweet milk chocolate and cocoa powder, interwoven with faint vanilla bean and a whisper of roasted nuts. Underlying Crown Royal's signature caramel and brown sugar notes are present but subtly muted by the dominant chocolate aroma. A hint of fruit, perhaps dried cherry, emerges after letting it breathe.

Palate: The palate is immediately sweet, delivering on the promise of the nose with a smooth wave of milk chocolate and confectioner's sugar. This is quickly followed by the familiar creamy texture of Crown Royal, carrying notes of butterscotch, light maple syrup, and a touch of oak spice. The chocolate character is more akin to a liqueur or a chocolate bar dissolved in liquid rather than a dry cocoa. It's approachable and undeniably dessert-like.

Finish: Medium-short and sweet, dissolving into a lingering impression of chocolate syrup and a gentle warmth. A slight return of vanilla and a hint of the Canadian whisky's underlying grain character peeks through briefly before fading. It remains pleasant and without bitterness, consistent with its easy-drinking nature.
