Origin & Production:
Royal Salute 21 Year is a prestigious blended Scotch whisky first created in 1953 by Chivas Brothers to celebrate the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. Every drop in this blend is aged for a minimum of 21 years, sourced from Scotland’s finest malt and grain whiskies. The long maturation in carefully selected oak casks many of them seasoned with sherry develops a refined complexity that has become synonymous with the Royal Salute name. The whisky is presented in an elegant hand-crafted porcelain flagon, adding to its regal appeal.

Tasting Notes:
The nose opens with rich aromas of sweet pears, citrus peel, and autumn fruits, layered with fragrant floral notes, nuts, and a trace of sherry warmth. On the palate, it is luxuriously smooth and full-bodied, offering flavors of honeyed malt, dried apricots, stewed plums, and a delicate medley of spices including cinnamon and clove. Subtle chocolate, toffee, and roasted nuts emerge mid-palate, carried by a gentle oak presence. The finish is exceptionally long and warming, with lingering fruit sweetness, soft spice, and a touch of smoke that gives depth without overpowering.

Serving Suggestion:
Best enjoyed neat in a crystal tumbler to fully appreciate its rich complexity, or with a few drops of still water to unlock deeper fruit and spice layers. Royal Salute 21 pairs beautifully with fine dark chocolate, mature cheeses, or celebratory moments that call for an extraordinary dram.
