Royal Salute 21 Year Old Polo Rio Blended Scotch Whisky

Created in 1953 to commemorate the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, Royal Salute’s iconic 21-Year-Old Signature Blend is named after the 21 Gun Salute fired at the Tower of London for royal celebrations. Royal Salute is the only Scotch Whisky where the product range begins at 21 years old. With an unwavering commitment to mastery in blending and bespoke packaging design, these exceptional Scotch Whiskies are housed in coated glass flagons or hand-blown crystal decanters.

Royal Salute is the only permanent whisky range aged 21 years and older, making it the world’s leading luxury whisky range. When he created Royal Salute 21 Scotch whisky in 1953, Charles Julian, who was also an expert tea blender, had the responsibility of defining Royal Salute’s signature blend: an unforgettable, commanding, complex, velvet smooth Scotch whisky with a powerful and sophisticated style. Royal Salute 21 years old Scotch whisky was launched as a reference to the 21-gun salute, the tradition of firing guns to celebrate special State and Royal occasions. Its unique flagon is made of porcelain, crafted by Wade Ceramics (UK). The first flagon in 1953 was crafted by Royal Doulton.
