Product Description

Crown Royal Blackberry: A Vibrant Summer Twist on a Canadian Classic

Crown Royal Blackberry Flavored Whisky is a limited edition released for the summer season, crafted by carefully selecting Crown Royal whiskies and infusing them with the juicy flavor of fresh blackberries. The harmonious notes of this summer fruit complement the signature richness of Crown Royal's blended Canadian whisky, resulting in a vibrantly delicious pour that bursts with luscious blackberry character alongside Crown Royal's unmistakable smoothness.

Crown Royal itself dates back to 1939, when a Canadian spirits entrepreneur crafted a whisky suited for King George VI and Queen Elizabeth's historic royal tour of Canada, the first visit by reigning monarchs to the country. That same commitment to craft carries through today, with roughly 80% of Crown Royal's grain, rye, corn, and barley, sourced from Manitoba and the surrounding provinces. Blackberry brings a genuinely distinct character to the Crown Royal flavored lineup: the fruit's natural tannin adds a subtle structure and slight tartness that stone fruit infusions like peach or apple don't have, giving this expression more depth and a touch of sophistication alongside its sweetness.

Whether poured over ice on a warm evening, mixed into a Blackberry Lemonade, or added to your favorite cocktail for a fruit-forward twist, Crown Royal Blackberry delivers a refreshing, distinctive take on a brand that's been redefining flavored whisky for years.

Nose: Sweet blackberry sauce and ripe blackberries, with whispers of vanilla and Crown Royal's familiar warmth.

Palate: Vanilla balanced with cooked, slightly tart blackberries, layered with caramel and light oak.

Food Pairings

Crown Royal Blackberry's fruit-forward sweetness pairs beautifully with warm-weather fare. Try it alongside grilled chicken, a fresh berry salad, or brie and crackers, or lean into its dessert character with blackberry cobbler, cheesecake, or dark chocolate-covered berries.
