Royal Salute 32 Year Old 'The Precious Jewel' Blended Scotch Whisky 500mL

Royal Salute 32 Year Old Precious Jewel pays tribute to the events of 1603, when King James VI fused three mighty kingdoms to create the modern British Monarchy. Reflecting the significance of this historical event, the rare single malts in Royal Salute 32 Year Old Precious Jewel also show the power of unity, combining precious whiskies to create a timeless experience that can boast to be greater than the sum of its parts.

Exceptional whiskies aged for over 32 years have been hand-selected from some of the best distilleries in Scotland, such as: Tormore which lends its distinctive creamy texture: the characteristically fruity Glen Keith: Longmorn, which imparts a sweet and generous flavour: addition to long-since closed distilleries, Lochside and Caperdonich. The final expression offers a rich and fruity nose and tasting notes of soft caramel toffee, dark chocolate and orange with a touch of ginger cake.

Reflecting the rare liquid within, Royal Salute 32 Year Precious Jewel is presented in an elegant porcelain flagon, made from the purest clay, water and tempered fire. The flagon, which takes ten days to make at the hands of highly skilled craftsmen, is embossed with a distinguished hand-hammered silver plaque, while a black stone set on a silver crown tops the bottle. Each bottle is unique, with the glaze giving every flagon an individual patina, the result of a secret firing process. The story of the Precious Jewel is brought elegantly to life through the flagon’s long neck, which is decorated with a rose, a thistle and a shamrock.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: Exquisitely smooth. Notes of smooth orange balanced with soft ripe pear with a touch of moist ginger cake.

Palate: A rich and fruity nose reveals notes of peaches in sweet syrup, soft caramel toffee, cinnamon and a hint of dark chocolate.

Finish: A never-ending finish.

"I trust Nicola Sturgeon has given The Union of Crowns, this truly outstanding and worthy Scotch blend to celebrate the joining of kingdoms of England, Scotland and Ireland, her seal of approval and she will help promote it fervently as a great Scottish export ..." - Jim Murray, Whisky Bible
