Origin and Heritage
Chivas Regal XV is a modern masterpiece from Chivas Brothers, founded in 1801 by James and John Chivas in Aberdeen, Scotland, now part of Pernod Ricard. Renowned as one of the world’s top luxury Scotch brands, Chivas earned a Royal Warrant in 1843 to supply Queen Victoria, cementing its prestige. Launched in 2018, Chivas XV is a bold innovation, blending 15-year-old malt and grain whiskies finished in Grande Champagne cognac casks—a technique inspired by Master Blender Sandy Hyslop’s vision to fuse Scotch tradition with French elegance. This whisky’s global acclaim, including a Gold Medal at the 2020 International Spirits Competition, makes it a coveted choice for Nairobi’s whisky elite seeking a contemporary classic.
