This second edition sees a striking evolution of the concept of royal crowns, with two new interpretations reminiscent of Reed’s iconic headpieces.
Each crown takes a unique form, elegantly adorning the flagons with an intricate lace motif inspired by Reed’s demi-couture designs and exploring other facets of his captivating theatrical style. This edition showcases Royal Salute’s commitment to craftsmanship and telling captivating stories in the world of whisky.
For this limited release, Harris Reed and Royal Salute Master Blender Sandy Hyslop have created a bespoke 21-Year-Old Blended Scotch. This new expression is a remarkable tribute to the rich and fluid style of the visionary designer and the timeless signature of Royal Salute whiskies.
Building upon their first collaboration, the blend once again features reputed Strathclyde grain whiskies and Braeval malts, imparting delicate floral characteristics, while the higher inclusion of Longmorn and first-fill Sherry butt-matured whiskies has imbued the blend with elevated creamy and spicy notes. Harmonious notes of raspberries, creamy vanilla and cherry compote are subtly balanced by sweet toasted oak and warming ginger spice.
