Chivas Brothers have unveiled their newest global travel retail exclusive blended Scotch whisky: the Chivas Regal 18 Year Old Ultimate Cask Collection, Pauillac Cask Finish.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A luxurious whisky, the Chivas Regal 18 Year Pauillac Cask Finish is created by blending malt and grain whiskies carefully chosen from various distilleries across Scotland. The whisky is then drawn down and fully finished in the finest Pauillac wine casks from one of the best wine producing regions of France, to bring out full-bodied flavour notes.<\/p>\n

Released as part of the ultra-premium Ultimate Cask Collection, the Chivas Regal 18 Year Old Pauillac Cask Finish expression is bottled at a unique strength of 48% ABV by Chivas Regal Master Blender, Sandy Hyslop, and comes in the familiar 1L Chivas Regal glass bottle with elegant flourishes of purple and gold, housed in a luxurious white, purple and gold carton.<\/p>\n

Connoisseurs will discover rich raspberry coulis and fresh vanilla aromas on the nose evolving into tasting notes of homemade blackcurrant jam, lemon curd, spiced plums, and poached pear on the palate. The long, sweet yet complex finish laced with spicy undertones will excite the palates of wine and whisky collectors alike.<\/p>\n

Widely available in duty free locations across UAE, Asia\/South-East Asia, India, the UK and the Americas from March 2025, travellers will be invited to engage with the latest expression through intimate guided tastings and exclusive store activations, highlighting the premiumisation of Chivas Regal.<\/p>\n
