Crown Royal Blue LaSalle Edition XR Extra Rare Whisky

The rarest and most prestigious blend from the Crown Royal range, Extra Rare (XR) is handcrafted with a unique blend that includes the final batch of whiskies from the renowned LaSalle distillery.

The resulting whiskies were full-bodied and exceptionally smooth.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Closed at first, the nose opens to hints of fresh lumber, cedar, sweet licorice, floral and perfumed rye notes, then hints of pine. Dry grain, mash, hayloft, then sweet cigarette tobacco follow.

Taste: Begins with mild toffee, like faintly floral corn whisky, and surprisingly, it tastes a bit salty. It’s sweet, but not cloying.

Finish: Longish, peppery, and warm, with bitter zest in the middle, then hot and vaguely sweet with hints of toffee.
