Dewar’s Signature Blended Scotch Whisky. Scotland. ABV: 43.00%. Tasted at Malt Supper Club, no idea how much it cost me.
Colour: Hard to tell. Tough to make out in a dark bar.
Nose: I literally have no record of this. Distracted by a cute girl who wanted to dance with me and wouldn’t take no for an answer. Who am I to refuse such an offer?
Palate: Soft creamy buttery notes.
Finish: Salty initially, but sweet aftertaste.
Comments: My first blend of the project. Pity I wasn’t more sober to appreciate it. At around 11:30pm I dutifully attempted to conduct my daily whisky tasting, sending myself to a quiet(ish) corner of the bar and tried to do the tasting. Tried to fob off the cute girl who wanted to dance with “Sorry honey, I’ve got a very important whisky tasting to do. It really is DRAM critical.” She didn’t get the whisky pun & wouldn’t leave me alone, she just kept standing there insisting we dance and waiting for me to finish my whisky before dragging me out to the dance floor.
All I can say is that in the name of the project I tried, I really really tried, to do a proper tasting of this one but circumstances conspired against me. The tasting of Whisky #12 was conducted a matter of hours later in the same bar at 2:30am (well it was a new day after all), with similarly lacklustre attempts (or capability) of tasting!
