Chivas Regal is a market-leading scotch whisky which traces its roots back to 1801 from the Strathisla distillery at Keith, Moray in Speyside, Scotland, the oldest operating Highland distillery founded in 1786. In 1843, Chivas Brothers was granted a Royal Warrant to supply goods to Queen Victoria and by 1890, May’s edition of Scotland Magazine described Chivas Brothers as “undoubtedly the finest purveying business in the north of Scotland.” In the 1850s, the firm’s first blended scotch whisky, Royal Glen Dee, was launched. The Chivas Regal blend itself became a reality after Chivas Brothers bought the Strathisla Distillery, which produces the Strathisla single malt whisky used in the Chivas Regal blend. Since then, Chivas Regal has grown steadily into the new millienium.
