Built only from single malts aged at least 38 years and finished in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks, it comes in a striking black 375ml bottle with a copper label, a compact format that makes such a rare whisky easier to open and share.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnlike Dewar's famous blended Scotch, this is a blended malt: there is no grain whisky in it at all. Dewar's master blender Stephanie Macleod brought together single malts from the Highland and Island regions of Scotland, each individually aged for a minimum of 38 years. The blend also includes an allotment of the previous year's Double Double 37 Year Old, carrying the series forward from one release to the next.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe label describes the whisky as aged four times. Its final stage took place in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks that had previously aged Royal Brackla Single Malt, a tribute to the Upper Highlands. The PX casks bring rich dried fig and plum to the long-aged malts. This 375ml bottling is bottled at 48.8% ABV, as printed on its label.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dried figs and plums from the Pedro Ximénez casks, over deep, mellow oak.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rich dried fruit and sherry sweetness, with the depth of long-aged Highland and Island malts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long, with dried fig, plum and soft oak.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dewar's\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blended Malt Scotch Whisky\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExpression \/ Batch:\u003c\/strong\u003e Double Double 38 Year Old, Collector's Series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 38 years (every malt aged at least 38 years)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 97.6 proof (48.8% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCask \/ Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Finished in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks that previously aged Royal Brackla\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Highlands and Islands, Scotland\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 375ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePour a small measure neat into a nosing glass and give it time: very old malts reveal layer after layer as they breathe.
