Royal Salute Kingdom Edition 26 year old Scottish Oak Cask Finish, 40%
Price: ● Issue: Summer 2022 ● Reviewer: Jonny McCormick ● Category: Blended Scotch Whisky
Master blender Sandy Hyslop expertly handles the coltish behavior of the heavy-char virgin Scottish oak casks to serve up the first in this new collection for Royal Salute. Aromas of toffee, baked fruits, cinnamon, chocolate, dried orange peel, Brazil nut, and a whiff of woodsmoke. It's a rich, decadent drinking experience with flavors of dark chocolate, apricot jam, ginger-nut biscuits, oak, spices, and a wisp of smoke.
