Jim Murray Awards 2016 “World Whisky of the Year” to Canada’s Crown Royal

It is the first time a Canadian Whisky has won the top prize in the Whisky Bible in this, its thirteenth annual edition. Last year (2015) the whisky world was shaken when the award went to a Japanese single malt.

Crown Royal Northern Harvest Rye is a unique whisky blend crafted from 90% rye mash whisky, produced at one of the world's most remote distillery, Gimli.
