Iconic international luxury brands Christian Lacroix and Chivas Regal have extended their exclusive partnership, unveiling Chivas 18 Year Old by Christian Lacroix. Following the success of the award-winning Chivas 12 Year Old Magnum by Christian Lacroix last year, the no.3 spirit in the travel retail sector and the French fashion house have produced yet another striking collaboration, with detail and style that could only result from the marriage of such celebrated luxury brands.

With flamboyant creativity, innovation and in true Lacroix style, Christian Lacroix has brought haute couture to Scotch whisky with the bejeweled Chivas 18 Year Old bottle, presented in a mirrored treasure box.

Dressed in a rich tapestry with embroidered jacquard, Lacroix presents Chivas 18 Year Old in a way that gives true credit to the multi-layered richness and craftsmanship of the whisky inside. Again applying the precise laser metallisation technique which was developed for the Chivas 12 Year Old Magnum, Lacroix delivers a lavish and sophisticated design that is perfectly coupled by the unique mirrored treasure box, resembling an ancient relic of regal nature.

Chivas Regal Global Brand Director James Slack, said, “Christian Lacroix has produced something magnificent in the new Chivas Regal 18 Year Old Limited Edition—a design that perfectly combines the luxury of haute couture and the craftsmanship of luxury Scotch whisky. What we are presented with, is not simply a bottle of whisky, but a crafted collector’s piece.”

Chivas Regal 18 Year Old by Christian Lacroix will be released as a limited edition with only 3,000 bottles available internationally and will be available at the travel retail price of US$495.00.
