The Royal Salute 32 Year Old Union of the Crowns is unfortunately a limited release from Chivas Brothers, because this blended Scotch makes one heck of an interesting dram. This unique edition, launched originally for the Travel Retail market, salutes (ahem) the moment King James VI fused three kingdoms to create the modern British Monarchy in 1603.

A truly special blend, whisky from distilleries long-since closed like Caperdonich and Lochside are combined with distinctive offerings chosen to balance a complex taste; such as the fruity character of Glen Keith, the creamy texture of Longmorn; the sweet notes of Tormore and the rich qualities of Braeval.

For all that effort to blend this Scotch, you better believe the Chivas Brothers didn’t skimp on presentation. This stylish and sophisticated porcelain flagon was crafted from purest clay, water and tempered fire. The real treat, however, comes from the secret firing process that ensures that each bottle stands utterly individual, because every flagon is glazed with a completely singular patina. Very much a chance to make the Royal Salute 32 Year Old Union of the Crowns truly all your own.

This royal offering is sure to appeal to whisky aficionados in search of a rare treat, so make sure you’re one of them!
