Royal Salute 21-Year Lunar New Year Whisky Edición Especial

A Whisky Fit for Celebration

Royal Salute, the master of exceptionally aged Scotch whisky, has unveiled a special edition of its renowned 21-Year-Old Signature Blend to mark the Lunar New Year. The Royal Salute 21 Years Old Signature 2025 Lunar New Year Special Edition showcases a breathtaking design by Chinese illustrator Jason Lyon, featuring rich symbols of prosperity, renewal, and luck.

Royal Salute has long been associated with celebration, originating as a gift for Queen Elizabeth II’s Coronation in 1953. Today, it continues this legacy with a whisky crafted for marking life's grandest moments.

Exquisite Design and Symbolism

Lyon’s artwork breathes life into the festive spirit of Lunar New Year, depicting an explosion of joy and tradition fired from the Tower of London, Royal Salute’s symbolic home. The design seamlessly blends blooming flowers and cascading waterfalls, signifying new journeys, while lanterns, phoenixes, and fireworks highlight themes of reunion, new beginnings, and good fortune. Hidden within the illustration are elements of Royal Salute’s rich heritage, including a nod to the Strathisla Distillery, its spiritual home in Scotland.

Jason Lyon on the Design

“My design captures the intricate details and symbols used to elevate the festive atmosphere as people across the globe gather to celebrate new opportunities,” said Lyon. “With this special edition of Royal Salute, I’m blending legacy and culture to immerse others in joy, fortune, elegance, and love.”

A Whisky Steeped in Legacy

Inside the bespoke packaging lies the iconic Royal Salute 21 Years Old Signature 2025 Lunar New Year Special Edition, a whisky that has remained unchanged for over 70 years. Crafted from some of Scotland’s rarest and finest aged whiskies, it delivers a rich and opulent character with an exquisite balance of depth and elegance.

This annual Lunar New Year release is a tribute to both tradition and innovation, making it a must-have for collectors and whisky lovers alike.
