Chivas Regal Scotch 12Yr - Item Code: 02207
Tasting Notes and Characteristics:
Chivas Regal 12 Year Old Scotch offers a smooth, approachable taste that makes it a favorite for both special occasions and relaxed evenings. With an ABV of 40%, this blended Scotch whisky is crafted in Scotland using a selection of malt and grain whiskies aged for at least twelve years. The result is a harmonious spirit that reflects the tradition and expertise of Scottish whisky-making.
On the palate, Chivas Regal 12 delivers rich notes of honey, ripe apple, vanilla, and soft herbs balanced by subtle oak. Its creamy texture pairs beautifully with smoked salmon, enhancing the fish’s delicate smokiness while complementing its silky mouthfeel. When enjoyed alongside dark chocolate, the whisky’s gentle sweetness and hints of dried fruit create an indulgent contrast to the chocolate’s bittersweet depth.

Scotch whiskey, a distinguished spirit originating from Scotland, is primarily made from malted barley for single malts and grains for blended varieties. This iconic drink undergoes a meticulous distillation process using pot stills for single malts and column stills for grain whiskies, followed by an aging period of at least three years in oak casks, often previously used for bourbon or sherry. The result is a diverse range of flavors and aromas that reflect the unique characteristics of its regions of origin.
Single malt Scotch typically boasts rich and complex flavors with notes of fruit, spice, smoke, peat, and oak, while blended Scotch offers a smoother profile with balanced hints of caramel, vanilla, and light smoke. The texture can vary significantly—from smooth and creamy to rich and oily—depending on the style. Scotch whiskey is versatile in its consumption; it can be enjoyed neat or on the rocks and serves as a key ingredient in classic cocktails like the Rob Roy or Blood & Sand.
