Chivas Brothers has crafted a wonderful well-sherried blend for its Chivas Regal range! This 13 Year Old expression (superstitions, be gone!) spent its entire maturation exclusively in first-fill Oloroso sherry casks. A wonderful fruity, spicy sipper to enjoy.
Stewed orchard fruit and sherried dried fruit, with polished oak and caramelised nuts.
Vanilla fudge, pear and blackberry crumble and lots of baking spice, along with frangipane and toffee apple.
A pinch of tobacco on a dry and sweetly spiced finish.

Spare me the snobbery. Strathisla distillery scotch is really good if you like a sherried product. Since you can’t buy the 15 yr single malt strathisla single malt, this 13 yr xtra will do just fine. They may not sell you whisky in a glass bottle that looks like a Bentley car, but think of the value you are getting.
OK - entirely drinkable whisky. Would not pay a premium over the 12 though
Superb whiskey Very impressed 12 year old is nice however this 13 is a massive difference for the better.
A lovely way to round off an evening in good company. A rich flavoursome drink, which, should be enjoyed rather than analysed. The current trend for ‘single-malt Scotch Whisky’ has filled up our supermarkets with countless unpronounceable names from obscure distillers. There are dozens to choose from. Much of is is, quite frankly, badly in need of something to be blended with! My compliments to the individual responsible for blending this whisky. You did a very fine job. Your product is likely to remain on my birthday list for as long as you care to make it.
Yuk.
