      The velvet ones were class and very sturdy. The felt ones they downgraded to were decidedly poor, seams would split pretty quick. They still make them? I was thinking they did only for the more fancy ones.

Just use two parts vanilla CR and one part orange Bacardi to make an Orange Drunkcicle. If you want to be fancy, take an orange slice and rub it around the rim and drop it in the drink for aesthetics. You're welcome.

    I have a bottle of Crown Royal reserve. It is easy to drink and has just enough going on to make it interesting. This is one of two whiskies (the other is Green Spot) that I will use as a warm-up when I'm planning to drink some cask strength firewater. It is a nice way to get started on a boozing session, and it helps to prepare me for the strong stuff. Now, I'm in the mood for Canadian whisky. A little later today, I think I'll start with Crown Royal reserve and then have some Alberta Premium cask strength rye. I wonder if it is available in Ireland - it would be fun to see reactions to a Canadian whisky that isn't so polite.

    Yeah, "entry-level whiskey" is probably a good way to describe Crown. It's more or less the default whiskey here in Canada, and often gets used in mixed drinks (Crown and Coke being the most common). I don't think anybody's trying to pretend it's a high end whiskey...

    My favorite flavour is the CR Peach. I made so many summer cocktails with it, and I even made a white wine sangria with the Crown Royal in place of the rum. You add tons of sliced peaches and some basil or mint leaves to the glass, with soda water to top it off, and that will knock your socks off on a hot patio afternoon. The difficulty is, they make them as a seasonal release, so you have to buy them early while they're still in stock.

    As a Canadian, the best Crown Royal that only come out at Christmas time is the Crown Royal Salted Carmel. Second best is definitely the Apple.

Also agree the bottle needed to come in the iconic purple bag!
