About Crown Royal 

Crown Royal is a globally renowned Canadian whisky, crafted in 1939 to honor King George VI and Queen Elizabeth’s historic visit to Canada. Produced at the Gimli distillery in Manitoba, it blends 50 distinct whiskies, aged for a minimum of three years in charred oak barrels, using locally sourced grains and limestone-filtered water.

Known for its smoothness, Crown Royal offers notes of vanilla, fruit, and oak, and is versatile enough to be enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or in cocktails. Its iconic purple velvet bag and rich legacy make it a standout in the world of whisky. The purple bag is also an icon of the Purple Bag Project, which sends care packages to those serving in the American military.
