Product description
Dewar's 15 Year Old Double Aged For Extra Smoothness is a whisky that proves that blended Scotch can compete with single malts in terms of smoothness and complexity. With double ageing and maturation for 15 years, it is the perfect choice for those who value subtlety and a long, pleasant finish. The single malt and grain components mature in American oak barrels for at least 15 years, then the blended blend is re-aged in Oloroso sherry casks, which reduces sharpness and enhances the sweet and spicy profile. The second phase of ageing reduces the "roughness" of the younger components, giving the whisky an almost creamy consistency. Compared to Dewar's 12 Year Old, the 15 Year Old is more complex and refined, with a more pronounced influence of the Oloroso casks.
