There are few things better than some s’mores around a summer campfire. Especially if it’s paired with a warming whisky. The folks at Crown Royal just released the perfect whisky to drink while you enjoy the heat of the fire, while you munch on toasted marshmallows, melty milk chocolate, and sweet, crunchy graham crackers.

According to the brand, the result is a smooth, sweet, memorable whisky that begins with a nose of toasted vanilla beans, chocolate fudge, and oaky wood. The palate is a mix of caramelized sugar, toffee, dark cacao, and mellow, warming whisky. Perfect to add an indulgent, chocolate kick to your favorite cocktails, it’s also great neat or on the rocks.

“Crown Royal has always led the way in whisky innovation, and with this new flavor, we’re inviting people to indulge in something truly unexpected,” Hadley Schafer, Vice President of Crown Royal, says.

“This new expression maintains the quality of whisky we take pride in, while leaning into the bold yet inviting spirit that defines our flavored whiskies portfolio. I’m excited for brand fans to enjoy Crown Royal Chocolate Flavored Whisky in ways they could never imagine.”

A Le Cordon Bleu graduate and HACCP-trained food safety expert with more than 20 years of experience, including serving in a James Beard Award-winning kitchen, fine-dining chop houses and boutique butcheries, he brings whole-chain expertise to Verde Farms' commitment to organic, 100% grass-fed beef from pasture to plate.
