Origin & Production:
First created in 1953 to celebrate the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, Royal Salute 21 Year is an ultra-premium Scotch blended whisky crafted by Chivas Brothers. It is aged for a minimum of 21 years, ensuring remarkable depth and refinement. Matured in a combination of the finest oak casks, it showcases the blending mastery of Scotland’s Speyside and Highland malt whiskies along with select grain whiskies. Its signature porcelain flagon, handcrafted by Wade Ceramics, reflects the brand’s royal heritage.

Tasting Notes:
The nose opens with rich aromas of sweet pear, citrus zest, and autumn flowers, balanced by notes of creamy toffee and nutty malt. On the palate, expect a silky texture carrying flavors of sweet orange marmalade, dried fruits, and subtle spice, underpinned by dark chocolate and oak. The finish is exceptionally long, with lingering notes of smoky warmth, soft vanilla, and a gentle peppery edge.

Serving Suggestion:
Best savored neat in a crystal tumbler to appreciate its depth, or with a splash of still water to unlock hidden fruit and floral tones. It pairs exquisitely with fine dark chocolate, roasted almonds, or an after-dinner cheese board.
