The Story

About Dewar's 8 Year Old Portuguese Smooth Blended Scotch Whisky

By the end of the 19th century, the famed Dewar's Aberfeldy Distillery became operational. Situated by the Pitilie Burn, the small river has served as a source of pure water to this day. After the malted Scottish barley is brought in, it is left to ferment for an extended period of time, before being distilled in tall pot stills. The Aberfeldy single malt that is produced here remains the heart of Dewar's blend today. The premises are open for tours and cask tasting with a whisky lounge and cafe on hand.

Dewar's whisky is crafted by blending together "the rarest of rare whiskies from across Scotland." The backbone is that 27-year-old single malt whisky that is crafted at Aberfeldy Distillery. Once the 27-year-old is married together with other whiskies, the resulting blend is allowed to rest again in oak casks. This secondary maturation process "is a marriage made in heaven — ensuring our whiskies are even smoother and creamier," said Dewar's retired master blender Thomas Aitken. It's this great foundation and the signature "double aging" process that has made Dewar's the most awarded blended Scotch whisky in the world.

This 8-year-old expression is a blended Scotch whisky. After its 8 years of aging, it is finished for up to 6 months in Ruby Port wine casks. Bottled at 80 proof, it's a complex, smooth, and unique Spirit with honey, vanilla, and nuanced fruit notes as well as a satisfying creaminess.

About Scotch

Scotch is the most popular whisky in the world and is considered the king of them all! There are five whisky regions in Scotland (six if you count the not officially recognized Islands), and each of them produces spirits with unique properties and distinct tasting notes. (The type of grain used determents the type of the scotch.)

Malt whisky is made of malted barley, and grain whisky uses other grains like corn or wheat. Most of the time, a whisky is blended from different distilleries hence the name blended scotch, but if a malt whisky is produced in a single distillery, we get something extraordinary called a single malt.

Tasting Notes

The complex whisky has fruity notes of ripe apricots, melon, and dark fruit. There's a prominent vanilla aroma that translates beautifully onto the palate with the addition of honey and a distinct creaminess. The finish is smooth and rich with lingering vanilla.
