Review #4 Crown royal - Part 1

Night 2 on Oahu

Having this whiskey as a chaser with a pint of "Heff" (Tikis' house heffeweissen) at Tikis' bar in the hotel where we're staying while the little one puts my lovely wife to sleep even though it should be the other way around ;-)

I think this whiskey suits hot suits the hot weather,
It's very easy drinking with a little spice but not much,
It barely smells like a whiskey but I am drinking from a tumbler so that doesn't really help much.
Lovely mouth feel to this, smooth and velvety. 
Doesn't taste much of anything at all, a little sweet and very little aftertaste or development...
Maybe it's the heat??
Maybe it was the very tasty burger I had for dinner???
Who knows...

Again this was drank from a tumbler at a bar.
Very easy going stuff!
I'm scoring this a 62 out of 100 (for the moment).

What was nice is that as soon as I ordered and received the whiskey the guy beside me said cheers! and I got talking to him, the barman and the waiter from the night before. He have me a  recommendation for his own place of work across the road as a top steak bar and also the best whiskey bar in town with a selection of over 20 whiskeys!
I'll have check it out (I didn't - maybe next time)

BBQ Ribs - done (repeatedly mm mm ribs!!)
Burger - done (was fantastic Americans do great burgers!)
Steak - did it  (disappointing - steak is better in Australia and Ireland)

I will review this whiskey again as i bought a miniature to take home with me :-)

cheers,
Kev
