Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is a 26-year-old blended Scotch from Chivas Brothers, fully finished in Amarone wine casks, which is a first for Royal Salute. It is the second edition of the house's Kingdom Collection, a tribute to Italy's landscapes, architecture and food culture. In the glass it is generous and fruit-forward. The nose brings plums and Seville orange zest with cherry tart and chocolate orange beneath. The palate offers dark cherries, apricot jam, wild redcurrants and panettone, threaded with clove and ginger, before a rich, spicy finish that lingers. Bottled at 40% ABV, it stays approachable rather than fiery. That makes it a natural pick for drinkers who love mature blends and want to see what a red wine cask can do, and for collectors following the Kingdom Collection. We carry it because the Amarone influence gives it a distinct personality among aged blends, and because it rewards slow, attentive sipping after dinner, alongside dessert or a well-chosen cheese board.
Pairs well with
- Parmigiano-Reggiano and prosciutto — Salty aged cheese and cured meat set off the whisky's jammy apricot and dark cherry fruit.
- Tiramisu or dark chocolate truffles — Italian desserts and dark chocolate echo the chocolate orange and panettone notes on the nose and palate.
- After-dinner medium-bodied cigar — A medium to full-bodied cigar harmonizes with the rich, spicy clove and ginger finish.
