Royal Salute Formosa Island - Taiwanese Exclusive Blended Scotch Whisky 23 Year Old

Colour

Rich amber-gold with velvety copper highlights and a sunset-bronze depth. A luxurious, inviting glow that hints at sherry-cask maturity.

Nose

Opulent and velvety, this nose pours from the regal flagon with polished oak and silky sherry, dark plum and fig, and a citrusy lift of orange zest. Warm oriental spices—cinnamon, clove, and a whisper of sandalwood—combine with vanilla and cocoa, while a hint of tobacco leaf adds depth to a lingering, refined perfume.

Palate

Silky and velvety on entry, with dried apricots, orange peel and dark chocolate, enrobed in sherry sweetness. Oriental spice: cinnamon, clove and saffron rise over polished oak, with subtle walnut notes. The mouthfeel is luxurious and full, delivering a long finish of raisins, cocoa and warm spice.

Finish

Long, velvet finish, sherry-rich and luxurious, with dark plum and fig, toasted almond and cocoa, and a touch of spice. Warm and lingering, it fades to a refined honeyed glow that echoes Formosa’s exotic elegance.
