Luxury Scotch whisky brand, Chivas Regal, has launched its latest spirit innovation, crafted from a bespoke blend and refined through a pioneering filtration process – Chivas Regal Crystalgold.

Pairing the mixability and versatility of a clear spirit with the depth of flavour and craftsmanship of a dark, oak-aged spirit, Chivas Regal Crystalgold offers an elevated alternative to traditional clear spirits.

The company stated Chivas Regal Crystalgold showcases technical excellence, delivering remarkable smoothness and transparency while preserving the depth of character and craft associated with the Chivas Regal brand signature style.

Chivas Regal master blender, Sandy Hyslop, said the company has always believed that innovation should enhance tradition, not erase it, and Chivas Regal Crystalgold is the epitome of that.

“It pushes the boundaries of what’s possible in blending,” said Hyslop.

“Through years of experimentation, we have perfected a filtration process that removes colour while retaining flavour for a truly unique drinking experience. Our goal with Chivas Regal Crystalgold wasn’t just to innovate, it was to preserve everything people love about an oak-aged spirit, while presenting it in a way you’ve never seen from us before. The clarity is striking, but the flavour is unmistakably ours.”

Chivas Regal Crystalgold is available exclusively at The Whisky Club for RRP $100.00, from 3 October.
