The classic 12 year old blend from Dewars, this stuff is the successor to Dewar's "Double Aged" 12 Year Old - so named in reference to the additional six month marriage the whisky enjoys in oak after the initial maturation and blending. The practice is maintained despite the name change and the result is loads of flavour…
A heady note of juicy fruit and thick, creamy malt. Rather floral, and quite sweet with notes of toasted barley, almond and a tinge of honey.
The palate is perfectly poised with notes of barley malt, hot buttered toast, a little honey, and some aniseed spiciness.
A touch of smoke on the tail, alongside plenty of thick malt and sweetness.

I was given a bottle as a present and it sat unopened for a couple of years as I kept getting excited by various single malts that appeared more exciting. Opened it only to use in a cocktail, but the thick honeyed aroma brought me back the next day to try it straight. Just had another glass in front of a roaring log fire and reckon this is a great drop, with a depth of flavour and no rough edges that makes it very good value indeed (okay, I did say it was a pressie!!). In trying to think of fancy taste-descriptors I’d go for rich nougat alongside the honey. Nice blend =)
It's been a while that drank scotch. I decided to try some. I poured about 1oz on the rocks, with water on side. I was very surprised how smooth this scotch is. I recommend this scotch. Maybe down the road I will try their 18 year.
