Royal Salute 21Y The Harris Reed II D1 40% 0,7 l

Royal Salute 21Y The Harris Reed II is a limited edition that blends the world of premium Scotch whisky with the distinctive style of fashion designer Harris Reed. As the final chapter of The Fashion Collection, this collector’s edition captivates not only with its contents but also with the bottle’s design itself. The dominant elements are decorative crowns inspired by Reed’s iconic headbands and a detailed lace motif that references his demi-couture work. The result is a luxurious whisky that will appeal to lovers of refined style, design, and precisely blended whiskies.

Characteristics:

This edition is the result of a collaboration between designer Harris Reed and Master Blender Sandy Hyslop, who created a custom 21-year-old Scotch blended whisky for it. The blend builds on their first joint project and once again utilizes grain whiskies from Strathclyde and malts from Braeval, which impart a softer, floral character. A higher proportion of Longmorn whisky and distillates matured in first-fill sherry casks then gives the final composition a fuller, creamier, and spicier profile.

Tasting Profile:

Nose: Juicy clementine, sweet ripe pears, freshly baked sponge cake, hazelnuts, salted caramel, cinnamon sticks, and a subtle hint of chamomile.

Taste: Fresh raspberries, apple rings, creamy vanilla, cherry compote, orange chocolate, and sweet toasted oak, gradually complemented by warm festive spices led by ginger.

Finish: Sweet, complex, and long, with a lingering spicy note.

Royal Salute 21Y The Harris Reed II is the ideal choice for those seeking a whisky with an exceptional story, a refined flavor profile, and a distinguished appearance. It is suitable as a luxury gift, a collector’s item, and an exceptional bottle for celebratory occasions.
