This sweet whisky is underpinned by notes of candied walnuts, peaches in syrup and rhubarb crumble, but also hints of spice, cinnamon, ginger and smoky flavors. |

The sommelier's advice |
|
|
Serve between 16 and 18°C in a Glencairn whisky glass. |

| | |
|
As an after-dinner drink, on its own or for water-lovers, in conjunction with their Whisky tasting, we suggest a still, neutral, fresh spring water. |

The distillery |
|
|
A Scottish distillery founded in 1801 in Aberdeen, Speyside, Chivas is a world renowned brand. Around 1830, the brothers James and John Chivas had the idea of blending malt and grain whiskies, thus creating a perfectly balanced whisky with an original and unique taste.
Chivas Brothers became a huge success and their Chivas Regal 25 year old whisky was sold all over the world and was acclaimed by the greatest whisky lovers. Since then, master blender Colin Scott has continued to perpetuate the art of blending.
On June 2, 1953, the day of Queen Elizabeth II's coronation, he launched a unique whisky, "Royal Salute 21 Years". The name is a reference and a tribute to the "Royal Salute", the 21 cannon shots fired on that special day, which marked the beginning of the British monarch's reign. This blend of the most sumptuous whiskies of the Scottish distillery of Strathisla have been aged for 21 years... |
