We Canucks are a welcoming bunch... That bottle of J&B is just there as a degreaser and parts cleaner, right? It's actually filled with Crown Royal. The large dispensing bottle is necessary because I have a couple of guys that show up regularly that drink a lot of CR... a LOT... If you're ever around YVK, ask at the DZ for me. John ETA: I concur on your opinion of J&B. Liquid razor-blades. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The world's supply of Crown Royal is distilled a couple miles from the DZ. You can smell it cooking when the wind is right. The steam coming off the still is one of our easiest to read wind indicators. I buy it at the duty free on nearly every trip I make south to keep up with the demand.Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

gowlerk 2,277 #29 May 1, 2017 normissSo long as it isn't their 'Crapple'. That stuff makes me want to puke on taste alone. I heard someone talking about that stuff this weekend. Never heard of it before that. I can't imagine why anyone would want to try such an ungodly thing. Sacrilege. Diageo bought the distillery in 2000. They own many brands of whiskey. And they have a lot of marketing geniuses trying to find new ways of attracting new drinkers!Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

Surprisingly, the initials stand for Justerini & Brooks, the former being an Italian (we smart) who ended up in the UK in a roundabout, fall-in-love-with-opera-singer way. Another blend available for a twenty, and the most popular in Europe, fruity with a little wood spice. Drinkable. Ahem." https://vinepair.com/articles/the-20-best-selling-scotch-whiskies-in-the-world/ The fifth most popular Scotch in the world and the most popular in Europe. For 1970's-85 it was the second most popular blended scotch in the world. ...and...I like it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
