A limited release from Royal Salute created to celebrate the Union of the Crowns, which united Scotland, England, and Ireland under the British Monarchy. It combines a blend of single malt and grain whiskies, each aged for a minimum of 32 years, including whiskies from closed distilleries like Caperdonich and Lochside, along with others such as Glen Keith, Longmorn, Tormore, and Braeval.
The whisky is presented in a porcelain flagon embellished with a silver plaque and capped with a black stone set on a silver crown. Each bottle is unique, glazed through a special firing process that gives each flagon an individual patina, making it as distinctive as the whisky inside.
NOSE
Honey transitions to butterscotch and smooth vanilla fudge, followed by the warmth of spicy ginger and cinnamon.
PALATE
Full-bodied yet not overwhelmingly rich, sharp marmalade pairs with sweet peach and bittersweet cocoa. Peaty embers linger, adding an earthy tang with soft whispers of oak.
FINISH
Smooth with a long finish as sweet syrup gently fades.
