Taste Sensations

This edition of Taste Sensations features an alcoholic drink: Crown Royal. I am a big whiskey fan, but usually drink Malt scotches (Dalwhinnie, or Green Label). I am rather particular in my drinking taste, and basically stopped trying new drinks when I discovered scotch.


So what made me try something new? It's Canadian! Being a wannabe Canadian, and after hearing good things about it I had to try it for myself. After looking around the local bottle shops for a few weeks without luck, I turned my attention to the internet. Again, after alot of searching I found a place which sells Crown Royal (in Melbourne too!), and ordered a bottle.

It arrived a few days later, and I was very excited to try it out. I poured a Crown n' coke and tried it out. How did it go? I hated it! I could not have been more disappointed, and felt betrayed: How could Canada do this to me? Desperate to improve the situation, I went looking through the fridge to see what else I could mix it with. I found lemonade. While, I don't normally drink scotch with lemonade (it's nice, but goes better with coke), I was determined to make things work.

I love it! Crown n' lemonade has become my drink of choice. If you do happen to come by it in the bottle shop and have a spare $80.00, give it a try. I have only come across one problem with it so far, and have demonstrated in the below picture...


... I don't have any left!
