Chivas Regal Extra 13 Year Old Blended Scotch Whisky 70cl

Big, cozy flavours, zero fuss. Chivas Extra 13 is the kind of blended Scotch whisky you pour when you want something friendly and rich, but still with enough depth to make you stop and take another sip. The extra year in the cask pays off with a rounder, more dessert-leaning profile than your standard blend.

Why you’ll care, in real life terms. It’s a reliable bottle for mixed whisky drinks because it doesn’t disappear once you add ice, soda, or citrus. And it’s approachable for newer whisky drinkers because the flavours land like familiar foods, not a textbook.

• Nose: Honey, vanilla, baked apple, caramel, a little dried fruit
• Taste: Toffee, ripe pear, milk chocolate, gentle oak spice (think cinnamon and clove)
• Finish: Warming and lingering, with soft oak, sweet malt, and a touch of cocoa

This is classic Chivas energy turned up a notch. The blend is built to be rounded and easy to love, but that 13-year age statement adds more depth, more spice, and a longer finish than the everyday stuff.

If you’re stocking a home bar, it earns its shelf space by being versatile. It’s the whisky you can share with friends who “don’t really drink Scotch” and still keep the whisky nerd in the room interested.

And if you’re the kind of person who likes a signature cocktail, this is a strong pick for a Whisky Highball, a Whisky Sour, or anything that benefits from caramel-and-vanilla notes with a bit of oak spice.

It’s also a great “house Scotch” for when you want consistency. Same recognizable Chivas DNA, just richer and more layered, with sweeter fruit and deeper toffee notes taking the lead.

Fun Fact: Chivas started in the 1800s as a grocery and luxury goods shop, blending whisky to suit customers’ tastes long before blended Scotch became the global default.
