Crown Royal Reserve

With this particular whisky I decided to sample it with and without a tad bit of water. Let us begin shall we, without water first.

Nose: The first thing that came to mind was apples, fresh cut apples; and a gentle floral note. It would only go on from there..

Taste: Predominately apples same as the nose then cinnamon, oak, very mellow and not very complex.

Body: Medium easy to roll on the tongue soft and smooth no discernable roughness.

Finish:Smooth in and Smooth out and quick..

With water(1/4-1/2oz)

Nose: A little sweeter on the nose kind of like really juicy apples being cut (no joke). Still a little floral not as much as before..

Taste: Slightly sweeter on the tail end there is more rye this time also. No need to mention body and finish as they are quite the same just slightly diluted.

Overall: I don't know why this reminded me of apples all the way through its kind of weird not a bad thing though. Maybe batch quality does differ over time with this Reserve bottling of C.R. Question is would I buy this again? Yes I would buy it again maybe once more to see if Im right on batch differences but I would recommend this to our Canadian whisky drinkers. At least once...
