Iconic international luxury brands Christian Lacroix and Chivas Regal have joined forces in an exclusive partnership and are proud to unveil Chivas 18 Year Old by Christian Lacroix, an elegant and superbly blended Scotch Whisky. It will represent the ultimate collaboration of these two icons and will be available in limited release in the United States starting in May.
Christian Lacroix has brought haute couture to Scotch whisky with the bejeweled Chivas 18 Year Old bottle, presented in a mirrored treasure box. The history of Chivas inspired the stylish and regal design, and perfectly matches the luxurious liquid it beholds.
Sacha Walckhoff, Creative Director of Christian Lacroix, said “By creating this gold stamped and embroidered Chivas 18 Year Old bottle nestled in a precious brocade box, we wanted, once again, to convey the spirit of chivalry that is dear to both of our brands, while always keeping the quintessence of luxury and exuberance inherent to the House of Christian Lacroix.”
Chivas 18 Year Old is dressed in a rich tapestry with embroidered jacquard, and Lacroix delivers a lavish and sophisticated design by applying the precise laser metallization technique.
Vice President of Marketing for Chivas Regal, Pernod Ricard USA, Wayne Hartunian, said “Christian Lacroix has produced something magnificent in the new Chivas Regal 18 Year Old Limited Edition-a collector’s piece that perfectly combines the luxury of haute couture and the craftsmanship of luxury Scotch whisky. We are proud to add this extraordinary limited edition to the Chivas Regal range.”
Chivas Regal 18 Year Old by Christian Lacroix will be released in limited quantity with only 3,000 bottles available worldwide-approximately 100 available in the United States-and will retail for a suggested price of $495.00 per 750 mL bottle.
