# Crystalized Whiskey Bottles Royal Salute Whiskey Goes Glam with Gold and Crystal Accents By Allison Love | Published 2010-07-04 | Luxury Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/royal-salute-whiskey References: [luxist](http://www.luxist.com/2010/07/01/royal-salute-whisky-launches-62-gun-salute-in-bespoke-gold-and-cry/) & [luxury-insider](http://www.luxury-insider.com/Current_Affairs/post/2010/07/02/Chivas-Brothers-Unveils-Royal-Salute-62-Gun-Salute.aspx) Royal Salute Whiskey is launching its 62 Gun Salute limited edition scotch with a gold and crystal accented bottle. The fancy bottle features a crystal stopper surrounded with gold plating and gold accents on the bottle itself. The bottle is pretty glamorous, especially for scotch, but scotch connoisseurs can be pretty picky when it comes to the level of luxury. The Royal Salute Whiskey bottle is selling for $2,000 a bottle! That's an insane amount of money for one bottle of liquor, in my opinion. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.2/10 - Popularity: 33% | Activity: 54% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/luxury) > [Ultra Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/ultraluxury) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Luxury Whiskey Packaging:** Opportunity for companies to create high-end, glamorous packaging for luxury liquor products. - **Crystal Accents in Liquor Packaging:** Using crystal accents as a unique selling point in liquor packaging design. - **High-priced Alcoholic Beverages:** Increasing demand for exclusive, high-priced alcoholic beverages. ### Who This Affects Most - **Liquor & Spirits:** Opportunity for liquor and spirits companies to create exclusive, limited edition products with unique and luxurious packaging. - **Luxury Goods:** Opportunity for luxury goods companies to expand into the high-end alcoholic beverage market. - **Crystal and Glassware Manufacturing:** Increased demand for crystal and glassware products for use in luxury liquor packaging and presentation. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Holiday-Themed Scotch Whiskeys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/royal-salute-1.md) - [Ultra-Rare Whiskey Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dekant-acclaim-collection.md) - [Opulent Scotch Whiskies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glenfiddich-1.md) - [Ultra-Extravagant Scotch Whiskies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glen-grant-distillery.md) - [Luxurious 46-Year-Old Spirits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/limitededition-scotch-whisky.md) - [Ultra-Rare Single-Malt Whiskeys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-glen-grant-splendours-collection.md) - [Lunar New Year Whiskeys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/royal-salute-lunar-new-year.md) - [Ultra-Luxurious Scotch Whiskies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grand-cru1.md) - [Ultra-Luxurious Single-Malt Scotch Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bow-wave.md)
