HM Queen Elizabeth II, the coronation ceremony
1953年6月2日，27岁的伊丽莎白二世在伦敦威斯敏斯特教堂加冕。在此延续了几世纪的加冕典礼上，隆重奢华的皇室庆典向世人展现了世代珍藏的皇室珍品，仪式高潮到来时，坎特伯雷大主教把圣爱德华王冠高高举起，然后庄重地戴在“无可争议的女王陛下”头上。
On June 2nd, 1953, HM Queen Elizabeth II, at the age of 27, was crowned regent at Westminster Abbey in London. The coronation ceremony, which carried all the grandeur of the most important royal celebrations, could trace its origin back for several centuries. On such an occasion, all the royal items were displayed in front of the audience. At the climax of the ceremony, the Archbishop of Canterbury would lift St. Edward’s Crown high up in the sky and then put it down on the head of the “indisputable Queen”.
同一日，为表示对新女王的极致尊崇，皇家礼炮极品苏格兰威士忌第一次展示在世人面前。
This was the same day that Royal Salute was first launched, as a tribute to the new British Queen Elizabeth II on her Coronation Day, 2nd June 1953 - over 50 years ago.
皇家礼炮得名于一个古老的传统——即皇家海军在典礼上鸣放21响礼炮以表达对国家元首最崇高的敬意。
The name Royal Salute is inspired by the Royal Navy’s 21 Gun Salute. The Gun Salute was the traditional salute of friendship that was fired by the Royal Navy.
鸣放礼炮的习俗起源于400多年前的英国，英国皇家海军战舰进入友国港口之前，或在公海上与友国舰船相遇时，将战舰上的炮弹尽数鸣放以示友好，而对方舰船也效仿以示回报。这种做法以后便逐渐成为互致敬意的一种礼仪。
The Gun Salute originated in Britain more than 400 years ago. At that time, before British Royal Navy’s warships entered the port of a friendly country, or when they met with ships from friendly countries at open sea, they would fire all their cannons in order to show that they meant no harm. The ships from the other side would do the same in return. Later, this practice has gradually evolved into a ceremony to pay respect to each other.
而据《英国皇家海军条令》，皇家礼炮只对女王、爱丁堡勋爵、女王母亲伊丽莎白皇太后、皇室其他成员、英国政府承认的外国皇储及其配偶、外国在位皇族的亲王和公主、外国共和制国家元首和罗马教皇鸣放。
According to the British Royal Navy Act, the Royal Salute is only fired to honor the Queen, members of the Royal Family, and foreign Heads of State.
