About this deal

Chivas Extra 13 Sherry Cask Selection is a rich yet sweet whisky that adds a deeper layer of flavour to the luxurious Chivas house style. A portion of this blended Scotch whisky is matured in Oloroso sherry casks, bringing rich and intense Mediterranean flavours to our whisky. Chivas Extra 13 Rye Cask Selection is a mellow whisky that adds a new layer of flavour to the luxurious Chivas house style. Finishing a portion of our blended Scotch whisky in American rye casks results in long, mellow flavours that are made to be savoured. Nose: Creamy with plenty of vanilla custard, honey and a tinge of Digestive biscuits, followed by an undeniable herbal edge, pineapple and damp oak. Chivas is undoubtedly one of the pre-eminent Scotch blended whiskies, even after the disastrous year they had in 2020. They launched the first luxury blended whisky in 1909 (!) and their current Chivas Regal 12 Years is a staple. They also have a more experimental range, called Chivas Extra 13. They’re all aged to 13 years and selectively finished (more on that later) in different ways; Rum, American Rye, Oloroso Sherry and Tequila. No, Chivas Extra 13 Bourbon Cask* is a blended Scotch whisky. Our expert blending team add a portion of our Scotch into a cask that previously held bourbon, which enhances the honeyed flavours already present in our blend.

A portion of Chivas Extra 13 Sherry Cask Selection Scotch whisky has been matured in Oloroso sherry casks. According to Hyslop there are all sorts of challenges when it comes to working with the tequila casks for the Chivas Regal Extra 13 Tequila Cask. Some are general challenges, other specific to the cask type. “There’s always a risk of leakage when bringing casks all the way round the world in a container”, he explains. “You also need to make sure that the cask you have coming are in good condition. I always stipulate that I want the casks to be freshly emptied. I don’t want tequila casks that’ve been lying outside for three years and are tequila by name but not by flavor.

I thought it’d be interesting to share some of Sandy Hyslop’s thoughts about his blending process. Keep in mind that all his quotes pertain to the Tequila release, but much of it can be extrapolated to his team’s approach for all the Chivas Regal Extra 13 releases. Adding an extra cask into the whisky making process takes whisky drinking on a total flavour adventure. Get creative with the Chivas Extra 13 range! If you’ve got a sweet tooth, the Extra Peach Crush or Extra Cherry Soda are sure to be your new favourites.

While Hyslop is undeniable pleased with the Chivas Regal Extra 13 Tequila Cask, he doesn’t see a full tequila cask finish in Chivas Regal’s future. “At the end of the day the Scotch Whisky Association guidelines say that if you finish in another type of cask, you must be able to still have the original characteristics of Scotch whisky in the product. We wouldn’t want to completely swamp it. If I was maybe going to do something like that, I might use a different kind of cask and send them out to Mexico to have tequila put in them. But I think a selective finish is more sophisticated.” Chivas Regal Extra 13 Tequila Cask (40%, OB, 2021) If we decide not to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms, such decision shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.The nose brims with fruit flavours of melon, apples and pears. They are sweet and tangy. This is tempered by a nice spicy sherry note full if cinnamon and ginger. No, Chivas Extra 13 Rum Cask Selection* is a blended Scotch whisky – our expert blending team add a proportion of our Scotch into a barrel that previously held rum. Rather than creating a whisky and rum fusion, finishing Scotch in rum casks like this enhances the sweet flavours already in our blend. için teşekkürler serinin diğer viskilerini inceleme şansınız var mı özellikle tekila bitişli olanı merak ediyorum. Reply Chivas Extra 13 Tequila Cask Selection is an exceptionally smooth whisky that adds a new layer of flavour to the luxurious Chivas house style. Finishing a portion of our blended Scotch whisky in tequila barrels is sure to take your taste buds on an adventure.

Hyslop mentions the tequila casks have had an influence on the Chivas Regal Extra 13 Tequila Cask he hasn’t seen before. “It is important to recognize as well that it wasn’t even a full finish. We had a double control over the flavor that tequila was bringing. We controlled the samples, but I also had the flexibility to say: We’ll only use so much of that finish with our standard blend to get the balance just perfect. I’m completely obsessed with making sure that people who drink and enjoy Chivas still get that DNA. It has that foundation of Chivas but with an extra dimension.” You are responsible for all activities through your account.

Today I’ll be reviewing the Chivas Regal Extra 13 American Rye Cask, but last year I spoke to Chivas master blender Sandy Hyslop about the range. Specifically I talked to him about the Chivas Regal Extra 13 Tequila, because at the time they were one of the few (and still are) larger whisky brands to have had released such a whisky. As you may remember, tequila casks became legal to use by Scotch whisky distillers only recently.

At Chivas we believe that blended is better – and nowhere is this more evident than with our new collection, which blends exceptional Scotch with a diverse, internationally-inspired palette of flavours.”
