Nothing beats a glass of Crown Royal.

Straight.

Cheers.

I can think of more effective anesthetics.

But whatever. It's your toe.

As a proud Canadian I can say, I hate Crown Royal --or any rye whiskey for that matter.

Maybe it was too many glasses of Canadian Club when I was a teenager.

But one of my sons loves Crown, so each to his own

I enjoy Crown Royal, but there are many spirits that are better.
It is good, though.

What is this 'Crown Royal' you speak of?

 

[The Big Ragu]

My taste buds have two things against it. It is a blended whiskey. And it is a Canadian whiskey.

I'll take a good single distillery Irish whiskey, thanks. Preferably Jamesons. And if I have a bit of spare change in my pocket, I might indulge in a Macallan 18.

Crown Royal is the stuff old men drank when I was a kid. And now *I* am old. I can't get past that either.

I prefer Canadian Club, but usually go with a bourbon over Canadian whiskey.

ThE second and thrd glasses went down very good.

Crown Royal was the old man drink in these parts as well. The call of "dabbles" signifying a need for a refill is familair to anyone who spent some time around Ukrainian Canadians.

Crown and diet coke is a fantastic drink. The bag also makes a good Speedo for Euro beach goers.

Not a CR fan at all.

Johnny Walker > Crown Royal

Gentleman Jack. All you need are cubes and a glass.

When I was a kid, a purple Crown Royal bag held our Scrabble tiles. I was well into my teenage years until I figured out that the bag was not standard board-game equipment.

At least 50 whiskies/Bourbon's I've tasted > Johnny Walker > Crown Royal

Gentleman Jack. All you need are cubes and a glass.

Friend of mine adores Jack Daniels. We threw a birthday party for her a couple days ago and I bought her a bottle of single-barrel Jack. Single-barrel Jack tastes like you'd expect Jack to taste, but much much smoother. We took a swig of that, then followed that with a shot of plain ol' Jack, and that tasted like Aristocrat. So I probably ruined her for that stuff.

Gentleman Jack. All you need are cubes and a glass and a toilet to throw up in.

Seagram's Five Star is what I remember from younger days.

Seagram's Five Star is what I remember from younger days.

Five Star and Corn Flakes was the breakfast of champions back in the day JJ.

When my old man would get together with his older brother (whose Scottish accent was even thicker than his) they would inevitably start with "a wee hoff", which was usually a shot or two of Chivas Regal (if my uncle had had a good day or two betting the trotters at Greenwood) or Johnny Walker Red followed by numerous bottles of Labatt 50.

Never tried Gentleman Jack (have been incredibly sick drinking the regular stuff on the rare occasions when I am stupid enough to do it) but I always have a bottle on hand when my aunt from Tampa stays with us while visiting her elderly mother. She can dust a bottle of that stuff in a couple of days.

I go through a bottle of CR every 2 weeks or so. Nothing beats a Crown and coke when I get home from work, and nothing beats a slug of CR, neat, at my favorite bar downtown.
