Chivas Regal launches Limited Edition Chivas 18 Ultimate Cask Collection

The Chivas 18 Ultimate Cask Collection is a series of three ultra-premium Scotch whiskies finished in a variety of first fill wooden casks, created exclusively for Global Travel Retail and as precious collectable limited edition. Arriving just in time for the upcoming festive season, each bottle is a masterful reinterpretation of Chivas Regal 18 and the ultimate gift for the most sophisticated palate.

Presented by Chivas Regal Master Blender Colin Scott, the collection launches with the limited edition Chivas 18 Ultimate Cask Collection First Fill American Oak Finish.

Bottled at a special strength of 48% abv to further concentrate the flavour notes in every single drop, this rare and exceptional blend is a celebratory indulgence. It is non-chill filtered to preserve the essence of its rich taste.

Upon tasting, the first experience brings a welcome scent of rich sweet notes of ripe plums, caramel, toffee and creamy vanilla. The taste is rich and fruity with orange marmalade, milk chocolate, raisins and delicate smoke flavours. The finish is long, sweet and unbelievably smooth.

Colin Scott, Master Blender, Chivas Regal comments: “For this new Scotch whisky collection we wanted to create unique blends that accentuate the most iconic notes of our original creation Chivas Regal 18 Year Old. Chivas 18 Ultimate Cask Collection First Fill American Oak Finish has been finished in hand-selected American Oak casks to highlight the distinctive notes of caramel and vanilla. The resulting blend is rewarding in character, which is why we have worked with Jozef Youssef to explore how people can truly savour this exclusive whisky.”

The Chivas 18 Ultimate Cask Collection First Fill American Oak Finish is available exclusively from Singapore Changi Airport DFS stores, at USD126 (1 litre).
