Product details
The second edition of Royal Salute’s prestigious Kingdom Collection is a 26-Year-Old Blended Scotch that celebrates the captivating beauty and heritage of Italy. Paying homage to the former Italian kingdom known for its stunning landscapes and culinary excellence, this luxurious release is fully finished in Amarone wine casks—a first for Royal Salute. The finishing in these rare casks, steeped in Italian artisanal tradition, imparts a unique richness and depth to the Scotch, resulting in an indulgent blend that perfectly balances tradition and innovation.
On the nose, the whisky reveals a rich bouquet of plums, Seville orange zest, and fresh raspberries, with hints of cherry tart, chocolate orange, and warming spices like nutmeg, cinnamon, and ginger. The palate is equally sumptuous, offering layers of juicy red apples, dark cherries, apricot jam, and wild redcurrants, complemented by the sweetness of panettone cake and dark chocolate. The finish is long and spicy, with an enduring complexity that lingers, making this release a true testament to Royal Salute’s craftsmanship and the timeless elegance of Italian culture.
