Royal Salute The Couture Collection 21 year old The Richard Quinn Edition, 40%
Price: ● Issue: Summer 2022 ● Reviewer: Jonny McCormick ● Category: Blended Scotch Whisky
Fine spices on the nose of this bespoke blend, with red apple, milk chocolate, earthy peat, peppercorn, whole nutmeg, and blackened oak. Rich, juicy, and nutty on the palate, with stone fruit, papaya, caramel, pecan, vanilla essence, soft ginger, chocolate brownies, clove, and dark sweet fruits. The flavors are caressed by the sherry cask influence, with waves of spice and chocolate on a lengthy finish.
