Chivas Regal 12 Year Blended Scotch Whisky

Chivas Regal is a world-famous Scotch blend which was first made in the early 20th century by Chivas Brothers. The company can trace its roots back to 1801, with the opening of a grocers at Number 13 King Street, Aberdeen. Selling luxury food, coffee and spices, it wasn't until half a century later that the company started to make whisky, and then not until post-US Prohibition that Chivas Regal 12 Year Old was first officially released. A very refined blended whisky, with herbs, honey and fruit leaping forth on the palate.

Tasting Notes

A creamy, aromatic melange of vanilla custard, hints of aniseed, lemon curd and butter toffee on the nose. Wood shavings and dried banana chips develop with just a hint of cassis. On the palate, more of those banana chips showing through on the palate, this time there's a creamy hit of barley malt too, pepped up with a little allspice. Notes of ground walnut and caramel. Light spice and black pepper on the tail. Lingering notes of cereal sweetness on the finish.
