Crown Royal is the first name most drinkers envision when they think about Canadian whisky, and for good reason. You can’t go wrong with its classic Crown Royal in the iconic purple bag or any of its flavored whiskies or limited-edition expressions. But, if you really want to up your blended Canadian whisky game, you’ll purchase a bottle of its recently announced Crown Royal Marquis Blended Canadian Whisky.

Crown Royal Marquis Blended Canadian Whisky is the latest innovative release in the brand’s award-winning whisky portfolio. Created to be the drink you enjoy before (and during) an epic night, it begins with Crown Royal’s signature blended whisky. It’s then finished in barrels that previously held Caribbean rum. The result is an 80-proof sipping and mixing whisky you’ll want to add to your home bar.

Founded in 2017, Oaklore Distilling Co. began when neighbors Thomas Bogan and Matt Simpkins talked about whiskey after walking their kids to the neighborhood bus stop.

The brand’s flagship expression, Oaklore Four Grain Bourbon, has already won a Double Gold Medal at the 2024 Barleycorn Awards. Distilled at its sister distilleries in Kentucky and North Carolina, it’s made with corn, wheat, barley, and rye. It’s made with five-to-six-year-old barrels of wheated bourbon and rye bourbon, which are aged separately before being batched together. After aging, it’s re-barreled and matured for another eight to twelve months in palletized, non-temperature-controlled warehouses in the North Carolina Piedmont in #2, #3, and #4 char level barrels.

Oban

In our opinion, there's no better aging or finishing barrel than a sherry cask. This is especially true when it comes to finishing single malt Scotch whisky. We also love high-proof whiskies.

Fans of high-proof whiskeys have a new expression to add to their home bar thanks to the innovators at Barrell Craft Spirits.

Barrell Full Proof

This one-of-a-kind bourbon blend isn’t a cask strength or barrel strength bourbon. Those whiskeys are bottled at their post barrel proof without adding water. Full proof bourbons are bottled at the same proof as they entered the barrel. Barrell Full Proof begins with the selection of individual barrels, which are then cut to return them to their original barrel entry proof.
