Finished in Cognac Oak Cask
Blended Canadian Whisky
40% abv/80 proof
Appearance: looks clear … oh, my glass is empty
already. Rich crystal amber
Aroma: delicate yet rich with brown sugar, fruit, nice sweet
oak spice coming from the cognac cask aging,
Flavors: similar to the nose; mild and rich sweet cognac,
stone fruit, nice sweet oak coming from the cognac cask aging,
Mouthfeel: smooth with light warmth
To the Point: a nice whisky, I like it better that the
regular Crown. The regular Crown is
boring to me. The Cask No. 16 has an
interesting flavor profile for Crown Royal.
I paired this with a Romeo y Julieta Casino II Reserva Real
Cigar. The cigar has a mellow buttery
mouthfeel with fresh white bread and white mushroom like notes. The pairing was nice and mellow.
