Founded in 1846 by John Dewar, John Dewar & Sons Ltd grew from a small wine and spirits merchant shop in Perth, Scotland, to become a global brand. John Dewar was so proud of the quality of his blended Scotches, that he was one of the first Scotch blenders to put his name on a bottle as a guarantee of quality.
Dewar's 12 Year Old is renowned for its rich and complex flavour profile, enhanced by a double-aging process in first-fill bourbon casks. This method introduces a greater depth and range of flavours. The whisky presents a harmonious balance of sweet and savoury notes. The nose features vibrant apple and citrus aromas, which segue into lush floral tones on the palate. The finish is marked by delightful hints of butterscotch and vanilla, providing a smooth and lingering close to each sip.
Nose:
The aroma is inviting with pronounced notes of apples and citrus, setting a fresh and fruity precedent that's complemented by an undercurrent of subtle floral notes, making for an engaging and pleasant olfactory experience.
Palate:
On the palate, Dewar's 12 Year is smooth, showcasing the lush floral notes which then give way to a rich tapestry of flavours including toffee, vanilla bean, and honey candies. This flavour richness is balanced with mild pepper, enhancing the complexity.
Finish:
The finish of this whisky is clean and malty, characterized by lingering notes of drinking chocolate and buttery biscuits. The use of fresh bourbon casks in the aging process adds layers of flavour that enrich the overall experience, transforming it into a more complex spirit.
