The fact that a large part of the malts for the Chivas Extra Blend in Oloroso stored sherry casks, is evident only on the basis of the color and the fragrance. Master of his craft Colin Scott vouches for the high quality of this multiple gold-winning Scotch whiskey.

With Scottish whiskey, Colin Scott, who has been Master Blender at Chivas Regal since 1989, knows his way around since father and grandfather have worked in the industry. The six blends of the Chivas collection all go back to his expertise, his wealth of experience and his talent to put together the best whiskeys in storage. Where exactly these whiskeys come from remains a well-kept secret: after all, it's not the production process that counts, but the end result. The Chivas Extra consists to a large extent of malt whiskeys, which matured in Oloroso sherry barrels and have adopted both sweet-fruity aromas and a distinctive amber color. The aroma comes with notes of pears and melons, creamy toffee, chocolate and cinnamon, while a touch of ginger plays along. Pears and toffee are also found together with nutty almonds in the taste again. Two international and one national award in recent years speak for themselves. Incidentally, the Chivas brand has existed since 1801 and has earned a good reputation over the centuries.
