The Chivas Regal 25 Story
In the first decade of the 20th century America was booming, and nowhere more so than New York. For those in high society there were the theatrical attractions of Broadway and the glittering milieu of the grand hotel parties. On to this scene, in 1909, burst Chivas Regal 25. The world’s first luxury whisky quickly became the toast of high society. But the party par ty was short shor t lived. In 1920, 1920, US Prohibition brought the story of Chivas Regal 25 to an end.
It wasn’t until almost a century after its original launch launch that Colin Scott, master blender at Chivas Brothers, set about bringing the legend back to life. Sourcing only the rarest 25-year-old whiskies, blended meticulously to rekindle the delicate intensities and subtle textures made famous by the Original Chivas Regal 25. 2007 Chivas Regal 25 was back. Once again a discerning symbol of luxury. A Legend Reborn
NYC Fascination Brand world inspiration

This was the New York perspective, reserved only for those who had earned it. Chivas Chivas Regal 25 perfectly perfectly embodies the personality personality and the perspective per spective of New York of around that time. Born in Scotland. Raised in New York.

Table set The table set is a key feature of the dinner events. It is where guests spend most of their time and can feel very close to the Chivas Regal 25 brand.

Table ornaments ornamen ts Table Table number signs are an important way to show guests to their allocated seating. The table number sign is designed with a diamond shape, foiled typography and a gold s tem – elevating it from a purely functional object to one that belongs to the brand. Sat on black or ivory table linen, red flowers are a way to bring a comprehensive but balanced brand colour palette to the table. Both the table number sign and flowers should never be too high to obscure one guest from another.
