Dewar's White Label 1960's

A classic blend that is still popular worldwide today, this is a bottle from the 1960s.

John Dewar & Sons were granted their first Royal Warrant by Queen Victoria in 1893, and it has been renewed by every monarch since then. The company opened the Aberfeldy distillery in 1898, and it remains the core constituent of its blends. This famous white label Scotch was debuted the following year.
Bottled at 43.4%ABV (Bottle size 750ml)

Nose: Pale gold in color. Malty and peaty with hints of honey, heather, papaya, cantaloupe, and pear. Sweeter than the current bottling, balanced by mild earthy peat.

Palate: Peaty with fruit, oak, and chili pepper. Slightly syrupy. Complex and aged.

Finish: Rough with pepper, oak, and cloying sweetness. More body than the current bottling but a disappointing finish.
