The nose immediately gives a nice rye spice, so much so that tasting blind, I would easily mistake this for a straight rye.  It's got good vegetal aromas. The palate is syrupy sweet with rye undertones. If Monin made a rye syrup, for rye cafe mochas or something, this is what it would taste like. The rye continues into the finish.  While a bit on the sweet side, the rye and the sweet notes play well together.

I don't think of Crown Royal expressions as having much in the way of rye, but this one clearly does.  It's quite pleasant and definitely worth drinking.  In fact, it's probably the best thing I've had from Crown Royal, though for the price, I'd probably pass on it.
