CHIVAS 12 YEAR OLD BLENDED SCOTCH WHISKY

Smooth - Rich - Generous

Chivas 12 is a classic for a reason. Made up of the finest malt and grain Scotch whiskies, this 12-year-old blended Scotch whisky is our signature blend – and never fails to deliver. Because success is a blend, in life and in Scotch.

Iconic Speyside flavours lie at the core of our signature 12-year-old blend. Crisp orchard fruits, wild heather and sweet honey are the result of years of craft at the hands of our Master Blenders. Over the years they’ve maintained the classic taste created in the 19th century by the pioneers of blended Scotch whisky, founders John and James Chivas.

THE CHIVAS COLLINS:

INGREDIENTS

2 slices of green apple (Granny Smith)

50ml Chivas 12 YO

100ml Lemonade

50ml Soda Water

1 Lime wheel

HOW TO MAKE IT

1. Place the apple slices at the bottom of the glass and pour Chivas over them. Allow to stand for a few minutes. The slices of apple are placed in first to interact with the whisky, opening up the orchard fruit signature notes within the Chivas taste profile.
2. Fill with large ice cubes.
3. Slowly pour the lemonade. The citrus balances out the honey notes of the whisky.
4. Give it a stir.
5. Top with soda. The soda water lengthens the drink further, making it less sweet and adding an extra touch of fizz.
6. Garnish with a lime wheel and serve with a long straw.
