WH-CH-015 EXTRA RARE CHIVAS ROYAL SALUTE RICHARD QUINN&POLO FULL SET

🥃 Royal Salute 21 Years Old – Extra Rare “Richard Quinn & Polo” Full Set

An exceptional collector’s piece that combines two of Royal Salute’s most exclusive series: the Richard Quinn high‑fashion collaborations and the Polo Edition thematic releases. This full set offers both presentation and rarity suited to premium whisky collectors.

✨ Features & Details

• Brand / Expression: Royal Salute 21 Years Old – Richard Quinn & Polo Edition Full Set

• Type: Blended Scotch Whisky (Age statement: 21 years)

• Region / Origin: Scotland

• ABV: 40%

• Set Components: Typically includes multiple flagons from the Richard Quinn series (e.g., floral‑designed decanters) plus one or more bottles from the Polo Edition line (e.g., destination‑inspired decanters like Jodhpur, Miami, Beach Polo)

• Maturation / Cask Details: Whiskies matured at least 21 years, selected from top distilleries and rare casks, then finished according to the release (for example, virgin oak, special finish)

• Status: Ultra‑rare; limited production for each version, set format significantly harder to find.

👃 Tasting Notes

• Nose: Vibrant orchard fruits (pear, apple), exotic mango/banana hints (in some editions), vanilla crème, light floral and spice notes — depending on edition finish.

• Palate: Rich layers of caramelised sugar, dried fruit (apricot, raisin), toasted nuts, gentle oak, refined spice. In some Polo finishes: coconut, tropical fruit, ginger.

• Finish: Long, smooth and elegant; lingering oak, sweet‑fruit after‑taste, hint of smoke or woody dryness depending on the specific edition in the set.

📝 Independent Review Highlights

• Reviewers emphasize the combination of whisky craftsmanship with high‑fashion design in the Richard Quinn series — e.g., decanters hand‑designed with floral motifs.

• The Polo editions are praised for thematic finishing and globe‑inspired design, making them more than just standard releases.

• For a full set containing both series, value lies heavily in packaging integrity, edition completeness, and condition rather than merely liquid quantity.

🎁 Presentation & Collectibility

• Ideal For: Serious collectors of premium Scotch, especially those who value design‑led whisky releases and set completeness. Also a prestige gift for major occasions.

• Serving Suggestion: Enjoy neat in a tulip or Glencairn glass to appreciate the nuance; minimal water to preserve infusion of flavour layers and design story.

• Collectible Notes:

  • Completeness is critical: full set means all included bottles/decanting elements, original boxes, seals, certificates (if included).

  • Condition: intact seals/corks, full fill levels, no damage to decanters/boxes, minimal label wear.

  • Edition history matters: e.g., first‑generation Richard Quinn (Blue Rose), second generation (Orange Roses/French Daisy), plus specific Polo destination variants (Miami, Jodhpur, etc.).

  • Rarity vastly increases when the edition is limited, travel‑retail exclusive, or part of a region‑specific release.

  • Provenance (receipt, original seller, batch/bottle number) enhances credibility and value.
