Crown Royal Monarch Canadian Whisky. Image courtesy Diageo. This limited-edition release was created for Crown Royal’s 75th anniversary in 2014, and the nose features soft spices with ginger, nutmeg, and a hint of clove along with caramel, honey, orange peel, and a hint of brown sugar. The taste is creamy and light with spicy notes of cinnamon and clove balanced by honey, caramel, orange peel, brown sugar, and molasses. The finish is light and lingering with a hint of honey and caramel. (September, 2014)
