On Wednesday, BNN Breaking reported that the popular Canadian whisky brand, Crown Royal, is in the process of rolling out a new flavored whisky: Crown Royal Blackberry, which is set to fully launch sometime around the end of February or early March. It appears the flavored whisky will be able to be purchased for around $30.

BNN reports that the brand describes the flavored whisky as “vibrantly delicious” and “bursting with the luscious flavor of blackberry.” The 70-proof flavored whisky has limited availability at the moment.

According to BNN, preorders for the new expression are “almost sold out.”

Crown Royal’s apple-flavored whisky is very popular, and in May, the brand released Crown Royal Golden Apple Aged 23 Years and tapped the “Cranes In The Sky” singer, Solange Knowles, to partner and host a series of events with her Saint Heron brand and Crown Royal.

In late 2023, Crown Royal unveiled its oldest expression to date: a 30-year-old whisky with a $500 suggested retail price. The producer hosted an event featuring distinctive menu pairings so whisky enthusiasts could join in on the festivities.

As far as flavored releases go, the Canadian whisky brand hosts quite an extensive portfolio, with something for everyone it seems. The brand has apple, vanilla, peach, salted caramel, honey, maple and Texas mesquite-flavored whiskies in its portfolio.

For Crown Royale’s Blackberry Whisky, the initial launch has gotten in the hands of a select view. In a video from Big Red Liquors, the whisky is described as “hotly anticipated.” If you’re interested in learning more about this expression, the video can be viewed below:
