Description
Dewar’s 8 Portuguese Smooth Port Cask Finish marks the third installment in the series of double-aged blended Scotch whiskies from the renowned brand. This particular blend undergoes an initial aging period of 8 years, followed by a finishing stage in casks previously used to hold ruby port wine.
With the distinction of being the third limited release in the innovative Dewar’s Scotch Whisky Cask Series, Dewar’s Portuguese Smooth is carefully aged for 8 years and then further matured for 6 months in Port wine casks. The result is a uniquely smooth and complex Scotch whisky, characterized by deep honey notes and a velvety finish with hints of vanilla and nuttiness.
