![]() I think there are better blends out there, so this one is a pass for me. The Royal Salute 21 is aged for, as you can. ![]() As for the ‘Salute’, it refers to the traditional 21-gun salute. Calling the Strathisla Distillery home, the Chivas Royal Salute 21 was launched on 2 June 1953 in tribute to Queen Elizabeth II on her coronation, hence the ‘Royal’. There’s a lot of unbalance, low points, and generally needs more time or something that pops in it. Royal Salute is a Scotch whisky by the iconic Chivas Brothers. This is best savoured neat or with a little ice. The palate is smooth and rich with spice, oak and caramel notes on the finish. Shows aroma and flavours of vanilla, soft oak, tree fruit, caramel, spice and nougat. There’s quite a bit of peach in it, and the nose is all orange and butter. A fine blend of exceptional whiskies, crafted by Crown Royals Master Blender and patiently aged for 18 years. At the end of the day, it’s too much Glenkinchie to be interesting. Reminds me of an aged chardonnay, though the flavours are more muted, and the finish is really short.Ĭonclusion: Meh. Somewhat boring.įinish: Butter, dry, peach, chilis, creamy, herbalĪgain, dry peach. So in a can, put there by a man.Īlso quite watery and quite herbal.

It’s aged longer than the currently Dimple. Since I’m in Canada, I’m calling it Dimple 15. It’s called Haig Dimple in the UK and Dimple Pinch in the USA. Who would have thought that you’d be tired trying to cut your cable, write a manuscript, work on a project for your wife, do triple the reviews, take some classes and finish them early, keep work going, run a Pathfinder game, and generally try to beat Borderlands 2 with my wife on Ultimate Vault Hunter mode.īut back to the malt at hand: Dimple 15. ![]() ![]() I’m having trouble just going these days. Up next we have a blend made primarily of Glenkinchie malt, with some “more northernly distilleries” thrown in for good measure, including Linkwood, of which we know is always good. Now to continue the series I’m calling “The Blender: A totally not rip-off of /u/tintin777‘s review series”. (Special thanks to /u/slackerdude for this sample) ![]()
