Royal Salute 62 Gun Salute Blended Scotch Whisky 700ml – 86 Proof Ultra-Premium Crystal Decanter
Royal Salute 62 Gun Salute is one of the most prestigious blended Scotch whiskies ever produced—defined by extreme age, rarity, and ceremonial presentation. It delivers remarkable depth, richness, and seamless integration, but its true identity is as a luxury statement piece. This is a collector-grade whisky where presentation, heritage, and scarcity matter as much as the liquid itself.
Origins & Craftsmanship
Created by Chivas Brothers, the Royal Salute range was originally launched in 1953 to honor the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, with the “gun salute” concept tied to British royal ceremonial tradition.
The 62 Gun Salute represents the highest ceremonial honor—reserved for the most significant royal occasions.
This expression is crafted from a selection of exceptionally rare and long-aged malt and grain whiskies, many matured for several decades (often 40+ years) before blending. The blending process focuses on achieving extraordinary smoothness and depth rather than highlighting individual distillery character.
Bottled at 43% ABV (86 proof), it is presented in a handcrafted sapphire-blue crystal decanter, adorned with gold detailing—designed to evoke the Crown Jewels and reinforce its status as a ceremonial luxury object.
Critics Reviews
There are no widely published professional critic scores available specific to the 700ml 86 proof release.
Tasting Profile
Nose: Deep and elegant—dried plum, raisin, and orange peel layered with dark chocolate and polished oak.
Palate: Exceptionally smooth and integrated—rich caramel, sherried fruit, toasted nuts, and subtle spice with a velvety texture.
Finish: Long and refined, with lingering sweetness, oak warmth, and a soft, luxurious fade.
