Though the faux-apple flavor overwhelms, it's still soft and sweet on the palate, showing some whisky backbone. Mix with ginger ale or club soda for an easy-sipping highball.
The world is probably not expecting much from Crown Royal Regal Apple, but in a world soon to be overrun by apple-flavored hooch, it’s probably as good as can be expected.
For what it is (an underproofed, heavily dosed and sweetened artificial whiskey based flavored liqueur) it isn't the worst thing I've ever had. I don't know what this could mix with to be pleasant, though.

House Review
Nose:
Green jolly rancher, fake sugar, overwhelmingly fake - green tootsie pop. The nose is highly effervescent - my whole living room now smells like Ranchers.
Taste:
Thick, syrupy, rich but artificially sweet. No burn, sugar, fake apple. Disgustingly thick.
Finish:
None. Apples. No heat, very short.
Overall:
For what it is (an underproofed, heavily dosed and sweetened artificial whiskey based flavored liqueur) it isn't the worst thing I've ever had. I don't know what this could mix with to be pleasant, though. As a whiskey, this is horrid. It has to be Crown Apple.
