This latest release from the Bacardi owned brand, is said to bring together the distilling traditions of Japan and Scotland, creating a rare blend that captures the essence of two cultures. Unlike American oak, Mizunara oak does not grow straight and can take over 200 years to mature.
Every release in the Dewar’s Double Double series is crafted
with a unique four-stage aging process spearheaded by five-time Master Blender
of the Year, Stephanie Macleod. The whiskies are aged, blended
together, aged again, then finished in a selection of different casks.
Commenting on the launch, Stephanie, said: "The journey
of creating this expression has been an exploration of flavours and
craftsmanship. Together, my team and I introduced a distinctive twist to our
award-winning Double Double 21 Year Old by finishing it in Japanese Mizunara
Oak casks, creating a new and exciting whisky. This latest iteration in the
Double Double Series is a testament to our commitment to delivering
unparalleled experiences to our connoisseurs."
Dewar’s Double Double 21 Year Old Mizunara Oak Cask Finish,
is now available in the US, for a RRP of $149.99.
