Chivas Royal Salute 21 Year Old

Royal Salute is the only permanent whisky range aged 21 years and older, making it the world’s leading luxury whisky range. When he created Royal Salute 21 scotch whisky in 1953, Charles Julian, who was also an expert tea blender, had the responsibility of defining Royal Salute’s signature blend: an unforgettable commanding, complex, velvet smooth Scotch whisky, with a powerful and sophisticated style. Royal Salute 21 years old scotch whisky was launched as a reference to the 21-gun salute, the tradition of firing guns to celebrate special State and Royal occasions. Its unique flagon is made of porcelain, crafted by Wade Ceramics (UK). The first flagon in 1953 was crafted by Royal Doulton. On the nose, sweet pears and citrus fruits are balanced with the fragrance of autumn flowers. An elegant blend of vanilla and dry oak is crowned with subtle notes of sherry and just a wisp of smoke. In the mouth, the welcome warmth of orange marmalade and fresh pears is followed by a brave explosion of spices and hazelnut. After the excitement, a trace of smoke lingers.
