Chivas Regal Blended Scotch Whisky 18 Year Old

Chivas Regal 18 Year Gold Signature is the premium age-stated expression in the Chivas Regal range — a blended Scotch built around a core of 18-year minimum aged malt and grain whiskies, with Strathisla single malt from the oldest distillery in the Scotch whisky heartland as the foundation.

Where Chivas Regal 12 Year is fruit-forward and accessible, the 18 Year adds six additional years of oak contact across all component whiskies — producing a richer, more complex expression with darker dried fruit, deeper spice integration, and a rounder, more sustained finish. The Gold Signature is the benchmark premium Chivas expression and one of the most consistently recognised 18-year blended Scotch whiskies globally. Browse all Scotch whisky at Wooden Cork.
