Отзывы о Chivas Regal 15-year-old расходятся: часть описывает сладкий, мягкий профиль с ванилью, карамелью, мёдом и фруктами, тогда как другие считают его плоским, маловыразительным и не стоящим своей цены.
развернуть подробно
В текстовых отзывах неоднократно упоминается сладкий и мягкий характер: ваниль, карамель, мёд, карамелизованные и приготовленные фрукты, изюм, молочный шоколад, а также оттенки специй вроде гвоздики, корицы и имбиря. Некоторые отмечают ноты нового дерева, дуба, зерновые и хлебные тона, а также лёгкую цветочность. Влияние выдержки в коньячных бочках описывается по-разному: у кого-то коньячные ноты ощущаются особенно на носу, у кого-то коньячный характер доминирует во вкусе, а кто-то говорит, что кроме коньяка и дерева ничего определённого нет. Финиш чаще описывается как средний или средне-длинный, иногда с танинностью, дубовой горечью, ванилью, мёдом и фруктами; в одном отзыве финиш назван коротким и слишком зерновым.
Оценки и общее впечатление сильно разнятся. Часть отзывов положительные или умеренно положительные: виски называют «super blend», соответствующим возрасту и цене, «much better than expected», приятным по носу и вкусу. Другие считают его забываемым, одномерным, плоским, без выразительного характера, «triumph of style over substance», а также указывают, что цена снижает ценность на фоне односолодовых альтернатив. Несколько отзывов прямо говорят, что он не оправдал ожиданий или стал разочарованием, при этом отдельно отмечается, что 12- и 13-летние версии были лучше. Таким образом, в текстах виден скорее разброс мнений, чем единый консенсус.

03/22/2024 - 30 ml It surprised me, but the price lowers the value for money, considering some single malt options.

Almost no alcohol, just a slight spiciness of spices, such as cloves and cinnamon. Fruits cooked or roasted with sugar and a little cinnamon. Five drops of water opened more vanilla, caramelized fruits, raisins too. Honey. Sweet, sweet...

Malt, caramel, honey, cream on a sweet bun, white new wood, slightly spicy but without alcohol. Crystal sugar, honey, propolis, yellow fruits, cooked fruits and light cloves and cinnamon. With water: new wood, vanilla, honey, sugar, cooked fruits and light spices. Old wood appeared very slightly, but I will not consider it for the notes.

This dram tries to please everyone and thus lacks an outspoken character. Rather forgettable and fails to rock my boat.

You shouldn't expect too much from this whisky. It was matured in cognac barrels, but the explosion of flavors is missing. The whisky is a little more complex than the standard Chivas Regal, but still fairly one-dimensional. Nothing special and replaceable. Makes a great gift for people who don't have much to do with whisky.

The whiskies inside are clearly not "bad," judging by their pleasant nose and palate. However, the presentation strongly detracts from the whisky's performance. It does what it's supposed to do, but nothing more. Okay. Price-performance ratio: Average Would I buy it again?: At this level, there's no need, of course.

A rather sweet and mild nose. A bit of powdered sugar. White raisins and maybe some caramelized hazelnut praline. A hint of cumin and spice. There seem to be some nice sweet spices underneath; maybe some ginger powder and cinnamon powder. Obvious custard and slight florality. Bread crust. Rum raisins. A bit of flower honey. In the background, maybe some green and yellow plums and elderflower, but quite minimal. A sufficient nose for what it is. A bit of grain and flour. Certainly not unpleasant for what it is. Complex enough for its level. Good.

It flattens on the palate compared to the nose. The spiciness becomes more pronounced and evolves into black pepper. The grainy side is similar; flour and freshly baked bread. Over time, rum raisins and dried white raisins become more prominent on the palate. Plums too. I think the biggest drawback is intensity; everyone's voice is muted. It can also be described as having a somewhat grainy palate. Obvious vanilla and a hint of oak spice; cinnamon sticks and a touch of clove in the background. Perhaps a pale, muffin-like, pastry-like undertone. Not very impressive, but not bad either.

Interestingly, a white wine-like aspect emerges at the finish; a vibrant white grape note appears for a moment. Here, there are effects of cold filtration, dilution, and a slightly grainy side. Although I know it's not from a champagne cask, the white wine-like aspect gives that impression; the relatively low intensity and short finish perhaps resembles an effervescent one. Low intensity and a rather short finish. Too grainy here. Okay.

Smells very fragrant. Oak, a light spice, slightly alcoholic, despite only 40%. Well, he'll be fine. But you do not have to ...

#0436 CHIVAS REGAL XV 15 yo FINISHED IN GRANDE CHAMPAGNE COGNAC CASKS BLENDED SCOTCH WHISKEY 40% ...it's drinkable...well, it is. But it didn't disappoint me. It's a triumph of style over substance. Flat and bland on the nose, but better on the palate. Visually, it looks nice, but as the saying goes, "a pretty bowl doesn't make a pretty bowl." And with bottles taking up more and more space, I'm not particularly happy with this one. Maybe I had too high expectations for the 15? If I poured it into a 12-ounce bottle, no one would notice. I'm wondering if it would make a difference if they added a little more alcohol? I've checked this one off and put it on the shelf. Together with Dimple de Luxe 15 yo, they'll make a pair. And they'll keep for quite a while.

The cognac notes especially felt on the nose. Delicate, but thin at the taste and the finish.

Nothing special. Undefined whisky except Cognac and wood aroma. For me this is example of dessert whisky.

Super blend. That tastes appropriate to its age. The price is also appropriate in my opinion. Chivas is doing a good job.

A completely mega disappointment that is not worth any description. Whiskey without expression, soul and any sensations. The 12 and 13 year old versions were much better spikes, despite the fact that they also did not knock you to your knees.
