Content: Corn
Corn ( Zea mays) is an annual plant and domesticated grain in the grass family that is believed to have first been cultivated in Mexico more than 10,000 years ago. Today, corn is widely known as a fodder crop for cattle and to people as an essential part of backyard barbecues when dripping with sweet butter. Then there's popped corn. Corn has also been a traditional element of Canadian blended whisky, but some Royal Crown blends contain a higher concentration. Crown Royal Bourbon Mash, for example, has a mash bill of 64 percent corn, compared to only 31.5 percent rye and 4.5 percent malted barley. Despite the moniker, this product is not a bourbon mash and its authorized labeling as such caused quite a stir. Within a few short months of coming on the market, bottles carried a sticker that read "Not a Bourbon Whiskey" and the official name change to Blenders’ Mash soon followed. It's interesting to note that fermented corn yields a higher concentration than some other grains – at least 14 percent alcohol is the average, compared to 8 percent for rye. Crown Royal Ingredients: Barley
Barley ( Hordeum vulgare) is one of the earliest cultivated grains.
