Chivas Regal was originally a pair of brothers who owned a grocery store in Aberdeen, Scotland, selling coffee, spices and spirits. In 1842, Queen Victoria of England visited Scotland, and the brothers' whisky was favored by the queen, and the following year, the Chivas Regal brothers received a British royal warrant authorizing the supply of whisky to the royal family. Chivas Regal is named Chivas Regal because of its relationship with the royal family.
The Stella Sesla Distillery in Speyside is the heart of Chivas Regal and is widely regarded as the oldest whisky distillery in all of Scotland. The Stratesla Distillery is one of the most visited distilleries in Speyside and a must-visit destination for many Chivas Regal lovers. Acquired by the Chivas Regal Group in 1950, the Strasesla Distillery specialises in the production of single malts for blending Chivas Whisky.
As the first distillery to produce blended whisky, Chivas Regal is known for its blended whisky. At present, the whisky products on sale in Chivas Regal's Tmall flagship store are 12 years, 18 years, 25 years, Mizunara and Yao Ultis, of which 12 years, 18 years and 25 years and Mizunara are blended whiskies, and Yao Ultis is the only blended malt whisky without grain whisky at Chivas Regal.
