Behind locked doors, these liquids lie in wooden casks, ageing, maturing, patiently waiting for the moment they are ready to make magic. Over the decades, the custodians of Strathisla have collected and stored whiskies of immense distinction. It is this unique commitment to quality and tradition that has given rise to the informal motto, “We Begin Where Others End”.īehind this drive for perfection lies the true secret to the success of Royal Salute – its legendary vault. To this day, Royal Salute has marked each significant event in the lives of the British Monarchy and is unique in having only ever used whiskies aged at least 21 years in its blends.
It was given the name Royal Salute – after the famous 21-gun-salute – and so began the story of a remarkable whisky.
The occasion called for a tribute fit for a queen and so, in Strathisla, the oldest working distillery in the Scottish Highlands, an exquisite blend was created. In 1953, the young Princess Elizabeth ascended the throne. The story of Royal Salute is unlike any other whisky. Inspired by a passion for tradition, born as a tribute to a queen, crafted with a desire for perfection.
ROYAL SALUTE IS THE ONLY SCOTCH WHISKY COLLECTION THAT BEGINS AT 21 YEARS OF AGE.
