Daily production of Crown Royal uses 10,000 bushels of rye, corn and barley sourced from Manitoba and surrounding provinces,[6] and requires {{convert|750000|impgal|L USgal}} of water naturally filtered through the limestone beneath the lake.[6] The whisky produced at the Manitoba distillery is stored in 1.5 million barrels,[7] located in 50 warehouses over {{convert|5|acre|ha|0}} of land. The whisky is then blended and bottled in Amherstburg, Ontario.[8][9] Crown Royal was also produced in Waterloo, Ontario, until the plant there closed in 1992.[10] Versions
