Limited edition bottle, which celebrates the collaboration of royal salute and world polo. The outstanding attention to detail crafted on the bottle is a centre piece in itself, resulting in a bottle that would make an outstanding addition to any collection. Royal salutes’ master blender crafted an outstanding blend of the 21 year old whiskies to commemorate the highly anticipated yearly event. Immeasurably deep with rich aromas and scents of ripe plums, apples and creamy toffee. A long and luxurious finish.

The very controversial Black Whisky Loch Dhu is now very collectable and worth a try if you ever get the chance as there are so many mixed opinions over this dram and it is featured in both the 101 and 1001 whiskies to try before you die books.

Also featured in Ian Buxton’s 101 legendary whiskies you’re dying to try but (possibly) never will book.

Nose: Burnt treacle, flat cola, soy sauce, over ripe banana, liquorice.

Palate: More flat cola, burnt sugar, soy sauce and aniseed.

Finish: Syrupy and sweet with coffee grinds, cola and treacle toffee.

Heavily charred casks may be used to make the whisky dark but i would guess some spirit caramel here too? Dark and..well decide for yourself!
