Royal Salute x Harris Reed 21 year old, 40%

Price: 105 Issue: Spring 2025 Reviewer: Jonny McCormick Category: Blended Scotch Whisky

The latest fashion collection is a partnership between Nina Ricci’s creative director Harris Reed and master blender Sandy Hyslop. It has intensity yet incredible balance on the nose, with heady vanilla, gentle spice and smoke, raisins, chopped orange peel, glacé cherry, and diced apple. Rich, flowing flavors of vanilla, apple, toffee, and spice, it rounds out with banana and crème brûlée with a sweet vanilla finish. (Release date: 9/24).
