$40 is great price especially from first choice.
Currently it says $48 on special hot price which is a bit silly

Makes a good gift, plenty of people think it’s good stuff.
But what's wrong with average whisky at a good price! Chivas is a quite drinkable blend, unlike some of its similar price equivalents, so this is a way to enjoy a dram while saving the nice single malts for those real thinking evenings :)
What would you prefer instead?
One of those whiskeys you'd be forgiven to drink with coke.
couldnt agree with you more,
I think its highly overrated, people here the name Chivas and automatically put it in a higher category
What’s to wrong with mixing it with coke anyway, you can still taste whisky through it taste is pretty strong.
woohoo!! Chivas and Green Tea tonight
wow i had no idea that was a thing
Asians love this combination, especially at karaoke joints
It's mostly a jug of green tea and 2 shots of chivas imo…
@Serapis: Thanks! Keen to try it in a couple of days, I jotted it down so I don't forget.
2 shots of green tea and a jug of Chivas.
For drunkening chicks?
Any green tea specials on?
ill stick with the $28 bottle of scotch and buy coke with the remainder bux.
How much coke are we talking about?
$12 worth
$12 party. Sounds fun.
$12 worth
That's about 1 line :)
How much does coke go for and what quantity do ppl normally take?
From talking to my patients it seems heroin goes for around $100 per gm here in Melbourne
$28 from where?
cheapest bottle of scotch mate, not a chivas bottle of scotch. it all tastes the same with coke.
I mean, where can you get a bottle of Scotch for $28? Cheapest I know is $30 Aldi Highland Earl.
BWS or DM have it for $43.
An option if the stores are closer to you
It's ok but monkey shoulder is my preferred cheapie blend when on special.
Monkey Shoulder is so much worth the extra money. I wouldn't call it a "cheapy blend" - as a blend of single malts Monkey Shoulder is a giant leap from even an aged blend of malt & grain such as the Chivas 12 year old and at $50 is great value for money (compared to the price of single malts) IMHO.
I would agree. Good bang for buck
I read a review that described Monkey Shoulder as a "one note" whisky, where the one note is just right. And I think that's exactly right. Not complex, but seriously well implemented.
Monkey shoulder or Dimple any day or Chivas. I don't see MS on sale that often though. Jameson Irish Whisky is a nice drop as well if you like smooth drinks.
monkey shoulder was nice. i kept the bottle just because it looked nice.
whats the normal retail price for this?
$43 - $45 on special (which it is regularly). I haven't seen it at $40 for a couple of years.
I remember when $40 was expensive for spirits.
I have left a Chivas 12 years old in the corner for 10 years, so now it is 22 years old I guess.
It's still 12 years old as whiskey only ages in wood and not glass
It still gets rarer with age when everyone else drank their bottles years ago.
The age statement doesn't change, and afaik there's no bottling date.
Stick a picture of Dragon on this and you've got yourself cheaper aged GoT whisky :)
A product would never stoop this low now would they…
Anyone had Royal Salute by Chivas Regal? What's the verdict?
Can't wait to punish my liver ever more so.
Whats the verdict this v black label
Black label is winner
Black label out of the two. Green label is even better
Thanks! Im getting married in two weeks and was looking for a bottle to put on every table…. Does anyone have any other suggestions for a blended whisky? Budget up to 50 bucks
Monkey Shoulder is better IMO and it fits in your budget.

Thanks for the suggestions ill check them out. @djevoulton ill give monkey shoulder a try everyone on here seems to feel the same way about it.
Congrats mate
Too many whisky snobs I think. Whisky's are a personal taste, you just need to find a blend you like. Chivas 12 is good, daily go to bottle. $40 is a very good price, you can easily see this bottle for as much as $65 when not on special. So this is a steal. Will grab myself a 6 pack.
How do you know it's going to be $40? Do you have a link to the new catalogue?

Dan Murphy's has (ridiculously) reduced its Chivas Regal price to $39.90 to beat this (by a whole 10c).
