This prestigious blend is presented in a bottle which has been inlaid with 24 carat gold and a luxurious case. I had another glass and for me, wanting a second glass, is always the double-check to see if my rating is correct. In 2002 whisky was drawn from the stash to produce Royal Salute 50-year-old for the Queen’s Golden Jubilee.

The name of this quality blend comes from the 21 gun salute, which is fired as a mark of respect for powerful dignitaries. It was decided that Royal Salute should kick off with a 21-year-old, made using whiskies laid down in the 1920s and ‘30s.

Other colours, all containing the same 21-year-old blend, have included blue (first introduced in 1960), and burgundy, which first arrived in 1985.
