Crown Royal Maple...

[nofearfactor]

Anybody tried it? Just asked for some for my 9th wedding anniversary present next week. I bought the wife high dollar choice seats for Cirque Du Soleil for her present and will also take her to dinner before the show, so I better get a case of it like the case of Four Roses single barrel she bought for me in 2011 that Im still drinking on, have about half of one bottle left. I love maple anything and I love my Crown Royal, but the reviews on their website were mixed, some loved it but others didnt. Im pretty sure that I will love it but if I get a case of it and it stinks then Im stuck with it.

My buddy tried it and hated, threw it away. Its really maple tasting, no like most liquors that are just "flavored"

Gives a whole new aspect to chugging maple syrup.

regular crown can't hold up to four roses single barrel, so i'm already skeptical before you add even add the maple flavoring

It says maple 'finished'. And I do drink alot of flavored drinks as well as alot of different liqueurs like various Schnaaps, etc, and alot of Jager.

I think I posted awhile back about it. Straight...like Crown Royal should be taken, its bad...yuck. But lately from what I'm hearing from a few folks its a great mixer. For what, or mixed how I didn't ask.

I have tried it and I liked it! Get a small bottle and give it a try. I didn't find it too sweet or syrupy at all. I will usually drink a good bourbon but the Crown Maple was a nice change. Maybe an after dinner drink.

I have tried a couple of different Four Roses and will stick to the Woodford Reserves or the Jeffersons. Four Roses was okay, not great. Ever tried Black Maple Hill? Very good but I have not seen it around here.

see if your liquor store has one of those little ounce sampler bottles you can try.

Although crown maple sounds good I'm looking forward to some new Jack rolling out soon.

While many rye products only contain the required 51 percent rye in their grain bill, Jack Daniel’s Unaged Rye consists of a grain combination of 70 percent rye, 18 percent corn and 12 percent malted barley. It still goes through Jack Daniels’ signature charcoal mellowing process, providing a unique tasting experience. Jack Daniel’s Unaged Rye will be available in the US, with an initial December launch in Tennessee, before a rollout into other US markets in January 2013. We'll let everyone know when it's heading their way.
