Dewar’s White Label is a blended scotch whisky from Perth, Scotland. It was founded by John Dewar in 1846 so they have been around a long time. The whiskey has received over 500 awards over the years for the various expressions. You will find this scotch on most bars all around the world.
Dewar’s is a very light blended scotch and is like Famous Grouse with respect to its flavor and consistency. It is fine, but I like more body and taste in my scotch. I find the White Label a bit boring knowing there is much better. Some of the much better expressions that Dewar’s produces are: 15, 18, 25, Aberfeldy, Aultmore, Craigellachie, Royal Brackla, and The Devron. There are a few other expressions that are produced by the distillery, but I wanted to list the most popular.
I would not drink this stuff unless I had too, or it was a cocktail of some sort. It just isn’t that good. Maybe it would taste better on a train ride up to Scotland.
Priced around $35 and fine for a baseline blend but I would upgrade to Aberfeldy or Aultmore.
