Introduced in 2015, this whisky is made from a mash of 90% rye — making it the first rye whisky ever produced by the esteemed Canadian distillery and was named the "2016 World Whisky of the Year" by Jim Murray's Whisky Bible. Crown Royal Northern Harvest Rye Whisky is made from Canadian rye grain, certified by the #1 Canadian Western. The rye is planted in the fall, and sprouts until blanketed by soft winter snow. After the snow melts, the rye completes its growth, maturing over the spring and summer, and yielding a perfectly smooth rye grain for whisky.
