Crown Royal XR Fact Sheet
Product History: The second addition to the Crown Royal Extra Rare Whisky Series is an exquisite blend crafted to include a small reserve of the final batch of whiskies that were saved from the renowned LaSalle Distillery (located on the island of Montreal), opened in 1924 by the Bronfman family. The distillery was closed in 1993, but LaSalle remained a bottling facility until 2003 and to this day still operates as a warehouse for many fine Crown Royal whiskies.
Product Description: Crown Royal XR, handcrafted to include select LaSalle Distillery whiskies, is full bodied, incredibly smooth and part of a personal legacy for Master Blender Andrew MacKay. LaSalle is where he began as an apprentice and refined his craft of blending the world’s finest whisky.
