A special Sapphire-coloured edition of Chivas' Royal Salute 21 year old - a superb blend.
Outstandingly good in my humble. And superb value for money. It’s sort of got everything one could dream of in an opulent & superbly balanced blend with a Speyside style.
I purchased a bottle of the 21-year Sapphire Flacon last November in the duty-free shop at KIA, Bangalore. I had reserved the same for a special function, which came up this year. When I opened the bottle, the packaging container and the pouch were impressive. However, much to everyone's surprise, the flacon itself was sealed with a flimsy shrink-plastic. The contents were not too great either...Which prompted everyone to wonder whether the contents were original ornate. The opening flavours were not special nor were the body and after flavours great. Overall, it was disappointing. Not sure if it was a make-believe or a fake. I felt the exorbitant price and that too at an authenticated outlet was a serious let-down.
I really enjoyed this scotch.
There’s an infinite number of much nicer whisky that cost less then this. The best thing about it is that it looks good on the shelf.
Wow
