Description

This ceremonial blend, designed to honour the 62 gun salute at the Tower of London, adds up to more than the sum of its 50 plus parts. Scotland's rarest and oldest malt and grain whiskies were curated by Master blender Sandy Hyslop and blended at the historic Strathisla Distillery in Speyside. This is the inaugural expression in Royal Salute's exclusive 62 Gun Salute range. Notes of orange and walnut. It is presented in a magnificent sapphire blue decanter, adorned with 24-carat gold and a handcrafted crystal stopper, and comes in a bespoke wooden box. The blend is non-chill filtered and contains whiskies aged for a minimum of 40 years.

Nose
An explosion of intense sweet orange, nutty oak, and a sensation of smoke, mingling with baked plum, black cherry, Brazil nut, and hints of black tea. Incredibly aromatic with old Sherry, leather, pineapple, mango, and green apples. [1, 3, 4, 14, 15]
Palate
Extremely rich with sumptuous fruit notes of ripe plums, sherried sweetness, fine dark chocolate, and warm cinnamon. Generous marmalade peels, gentle spices, cherry, candied ginger, and chocolate-hazelnut cake. Velvety layers of dark chocolate, sweet honey, orange marmalade, and spice, framed by old oak. [1, 3, 14, 15, 22]
Finish
Impressively long, lingering luxuriously with superlative structure, chocolate-dipped raisins and cherries, and a chewy, seemingly everlasting quality. [1, 3, 15, 16, 27]
