It has been created by Chivas Regal\u2019s longstanding Master Blender, Colin Scott, as a tribute to John and James Chivas, the two brothers who pioneered the art of blending whisky in the 19th Century. Chivas Regal Extra marries whiskies matured in Oloroso sherry casks together with a selection of the rarest and finest malts in the Chivas inventory to create a rich and generous Chivas blend. Chivas Regal Extra is a gold medal award winner in blended scotch up to 15 years category in the San Francisco World Spirit Competition.<\/p>\n<p>An incredibly rich and discerning interpretation of the Chivas signature style, Chivas Regal Extra has a fruity, sweet nose with notes of ripe pears, creamy toffee and a hint of ginger. The ripe pears continue on the palate, with sweet tropical flavours of melons and soft notes of vanilla and caramel, blending with spicy notes of cinnamon and hints of almonds, leading to a long and fulfilling finish.<\/p>\n<p>In-keeping with the other whiskies in the Chivas Regal family, Chivas Regal Extra bears all the aesthetic hallmarks of a classic luxury whisky. The textures and opulent colours featured on the carton and the bottle convey the richness of both Chivas Regal Extra\u2019s taste and heritage, as well as its super-premium positioning, making it an ideal whisky for gifting.<\/p>\n<p>Richard Black, Global Brand Director for Chivas Regal comments, \u201cAs the world\u2019s first luxury whisky, Chivas Regal has a long history of important milestones that have helped shape the Scotch whisky category and define cocktail culture and the tastes of consumers the world over. The release of Chivas Regal Extra marks another momentous milestone for Chivas and we\u2019re confident that this new super-premium whisky with its rich, generous flavour profile, will be well received by those looking for a truly rewarding and enriching whisky experience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>An exclusive range of Chivas Regal Extra cocktails have also been developed by Max Warner, Global Brand Ambassador for Chivas Regal, to meet the needs of the more adventurous discerning whisky drinker. The range includes six recipes featuring Chivas Regal Extra, with the addition of fortified wines to evoke the richness from the sherry casks which are at the heart of Chivas Regal Extra\u2019s flavour profile.<\/p>\n<p>Chivas Regal Extra is the fifth permanent expression in the Chivas Regal family, sitting within the super-premium range, positioned between Chivas 12 and Chivas 18.
