The master blender's hand-selection of three specific component whiskeys for the Extra Rare 18 Year ensures that only the most developed, most complex barrels contribute to the final blend, producing a whisky with a depth of character rarely found at this price tier in any whisky category.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep caramel, vanilla, and oak with dried fruit and rye spice complexity from the extended aging\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rich and smooth — caramel, vanilla, rye grain, and dried fruit with a refined oak structure from 18 years of barrel maturation\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long and elegant with caramel, oak, and warm spice\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Crown Royal Distilling Company, Gimli, Manitoba, Canada\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blended Canadian Whisky, Extra Rare, Age Stated\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18 years minimum\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBlend:\u003c\/strong\u003e Three hand-selected component whiskies\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40% (80 Proof)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrowse all \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/crown-royal\"\u003eCrown Royal expressions at Wooden Cork\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"FAQPage\",\"mainEntity\":[{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How does Crown Royal Extra Rare 18 Year compare to the standard Crown Royal?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Standard Crown Royal blends 50 whiskeys at varying ages.
