Created by master blender, Stephanie MacLeod, this is blend of malt and grain whiskies aged at least 25 years. The whiskies were then blended and placed into oak casks to marry for a time. Finally, the whisky was transferred to freshly-emptied Royal Brackla single malt barrels to finish the maturation process. This bottling replaces Dewar's Signature. Bottled at 40% ABV, this blended whisky will first become available in global travel retail from October 2017 before rolling out to other key markets.

I immediately pick up peat which oddly I do not see in any of the other reviews I would say peat (smoke) is dominant, but not overwhelming Interesting that further maturation is in casks used to mature Royal Brackla., which makes sense as Royal Brackla is a Dewar's product. Nose, palate and finish are pleasant, nothing jumps out at me, but also no flaws A good scotch
Defuckinglicious. Was 210GBP a fifth at London Heathrow duty free. It maybe worth the price now and again. Just too pricey for my everyday wallet right now.
light oak and berry on the nose, tastes so smooth and beautiful complexity with butter, hint of smoke, followed by pleasant astringency at the end
Soft and complex at the same time. Not bold and in your face... As expected after 25 years of wood.. delicate but still complex...
Nose: Light vanilla, honey and chocolates Palate: Spicy and sweet berries Finish: Hint of wood and peppers; dry mouth-feel
Super smooth and easy. Not quite as nice as the 18 cask, but still excellent L.
