Chivas Regal is one of the world’s most iconic whisky brands, synonymous with smoothness, sophistication, and quality. Its origins trace back to 1801, when brothers James and John Chivas began blending exceptional whiskies in Aberdeen, Scotland. Their commitment to using only the finest ingredients, paired with their vision of creating a premium product, laid the foundation for the creation of Chivas Regal, which has since become a symbol of craftsmanship and luxury.

Chivas Regal 21 Year Old Royal Salute has a golden syrup color. A really complex nose, great balances of dessert notes and richer characteristics. With a wonderfully soft hint of tablet and honey, beyond there appears a great mix of apples, chocolate and ginger. After a while, it opens up to lemon zest on sponge pudding with raisins. Palate: Reasonably spicy at first with a lot of butterscotch to follow. The soft texture is reminiscent of oranges and cream. This becomes more chocolatey after a while with less spiciness. The end of the palate gives plenty of fluffy textures, very much like marshmallows and caramel. The long finish reveals some nice echoes of a freshly baked chocolate cake. Fading away, more vanilla and spiciness.
