Aside from its lofty flavor profile and world-renowned quality, part of what makes Crown Royal XR such a special gift is the weight of its history. This Canadian whisky was crafted in 1939 to honor the visit of Queen Elizabeth and King George VI, who were the first ruling royals to visit their overseas territory. This whisky is exemplary across the board: a unique blend of extremely rare batches, including one from the LaSalle distillery in Montreal. Flavors of honey, dried fruits, and spiciness round off this whisky — if that sounds like something your giftee would enjoy, this is sure to be a winner.
