Interesting fact… Chivas Regal 12 Year Old whisky spells its name whisky as it originates in Scotland. Had it been produced in America its name would be Chivas Regal 12 Year Old whiskey, instead of whisky.
Nose: Quite light, feinty. Cigar box. Fruity, spice, honey, herbal.Palate: Full, rounded, fruity, nutty, vanilla, barley.Finish: Medium, touch of honey and fruit.

A bit disappointing
Had a hope for a classy dram but this was not quite that. It's a bit cheapy, I mean a strong burn feeling, a tad bland nose and lack of complexity on the palate. I enjoyed Dewar's White Label & Teacher's much more.

Blended vs Premium
12 yr - "premium" vs. "blended" - what's the difference? Had a 1.75 litre (with handle on bottle) with "premium scotch whiskey" on label. Just bought another 1.75 litre (with no handle) with "blended scotch whiskey" on label.
Good stuff, but ...
A really fine blend that you can spend time with finding touches of, amongst the usual stuff, a little smoke, salt and lavender. But, OMG, the lable and box! Hand me my buckler serf for I will forego to the Co-Op.(other supermarkets apply and can be smite'd equally)
