My sweetheart wife bought me a bottle of Dalwhinnie 15yr and a Dewars 12yr for Christmas. The first was to replace my dwindling supply and the second was a curiosity. Here is what it tasted like to me:
*Dewars 12 yr Double Aged 40% ABV
-smelled sweet vanilla
-tasted oaky with slight port wine sour
-trailed peppery oak and wine
-with water smelled sour wood, almost rubbery
-tasted peppery wood and trailed quickly
-after a few minutes-tasted oak
Water ruined this blend. It removed any sweetness. Not much to this.
