Surprised by Chivas Regal 18 years old

By Miguel at 2012 Jun,15 in Tasting , Chivas

“Not bad at all for a Chivas whisky. I hope they didn't f*** it on the new version they released a few years ago”

The premium whisky from Chivas Regal Bros, this 18 years old blended scotch whisky has an important part of Laphroaig in the mix.

Premium aged mix of some of Scotland's finest whiskies with an above-average proportion of malt and an extended ageing period producing a truly fine blend.

Not bad at all for a Chivas whisky, I suggest you to give a try to the single malt Laphroaig or one of the Buchanan's whiskies

This dram has a amber-like color.

Nose (86): more than average. honey, floral, wood, malt, citrus. Not bad.

Palate (88): powerful, oily. peat, honey, spices, floral, wood, citrus, cocoa. Not bad, not bad at all.

Finish (87): longer than average. floral, honey, wood, spices.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Chivas Regal 18 year with 87 points over 100.
