Crown Royal Northern Harvest Rye<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

Smells of caramel, toffee, and white pepper. The taste is lightly sweet and spicy with flavors caramel, butterscotch, toffee, and honey. The finish is long with a mild burn, featuring notes of white pepper, oak, and leather. Overall, it’s a very intense whisky, sweeter than I expected up front, perhaps due to the winter wheat used, but the finish is a bold, spicy smack in the face of oak and rye. Should be interesting to see how this one holds up in cocktails.<\/p>\n

A Rye & Cola is smooth and assertively oaky, with notes of citrus and spice underneath.<\/p>\n

A Whisky Sour is bold and spicy with sweet whisky grains and lemonade up front and a tart, oaky finish with notes of white pepper. A decent spirit forward drink, but one that definitely works better with a mellower whisky and\/or bourbon.<\/p>\n

A Scofflaw<\/a> is smooth and layered with grenadine, lemon, and sweeter notes from the vermouth up front contrasted against rye, vermouth botanicals, and oak in the finish. Remarkably well balanced, definitely worth a try.<\/p>\n

A High Ryeser<\/a> (a Manhattan riff) is complex and aromatic with sweet cherry and plum up front and a bitter, oaky, and lightly peppery finish. Very enjoyable.<\/p>\n

An Old Fashioned is smooth and fruity up front with a mild alcoholic bite in the peppery finish. I actually find that this whisky stands out more than mellower ones such as the Crown Reserve<\/a> or Jameson<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":5702,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","embm_styles":[265,287],"embm_groups":[],"embm_menus":[],"class_list":["post-5699","embm_beer","type-embm_beer","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","embm_style-canadian-whisky","embm_style-rye-whisky"],"embm_profile":{"malts":null,"hops":null,"additions":null,"yeast":null,"abv":null,"ibu":null},"embm_extras":{"availability":null,"notes":null,"beer_number":null},"embm_untappd":{"id":null},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/embm_beers\/5699","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/embm_beers"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/embm_beer"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5699"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/embm_beers\/5699\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5709,"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/embm_beers\/5699\/revisions\/5709"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5702"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5699"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"embm_style","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/embm_styles?post=5699"},{"taxonomy":"embm_group","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/embm_groups?post=5699"},{"taxonomy":"embm_menu","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/embm_menus?post=5699"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
