Crown Royal is a Canadian whisky producer established in 1939. Based in Winnipeg, Manitoba, the distillery produces blended Canadian whisky, a category defined by Canadian regulations that permits the use of various grain types and production methods. The brand has maintained consistent production and distribution since its founding, becoming one of Canada's largest whisky exports.

Canadian whisky, as a category, is characterized by a lighter body and milder flavor profile compared to Scotch or American whiskeys. The category permits the use of corn, rye, barley, and wheat, often in combination, and allows for flexibility in aging and blending practices. This approach typically yields approachable, versatile spirits suitable for both neat consumption and mixing. Crown Royal's product line reflects the conventions of blended Canadian whisky production.

The current range includes standard expressions in 100cl format, representing the core offering of the producer's blended whisky line.
