Dewar's launches Mizunara oak cask finished whisky

Dewar's blended Scotch whisky introduces the newest iteration from its award-winning Double Double series - Double Double 21 Year Old Mizunara Oak Cask Finish.

Finished in Japanese Mizunara Oak casks, this expression brings together the distilling traditions of Japan and Scotland, creating a rare blend that captures the essence of two cultures. Unlike American oak, Mizunara oak requires more than 200 years to reach maturity and does not grow straight, posing a unique challenge in the process of forming it into casks.

Featuring a balanced mix of tasting notes, the Mizunara oak imparts subtle hints of sandalwood and coconut, contributing to a smooth mouth feel. The finish leaves behind a sweet, clean taste with a touch of creamy vanilla.

The captivating amber-coloured whisky has been bottled at a strength of 46 per cent. Available for $149.99, DEWAR's Double Double 21-Year-Old Mizunara is available in 750ml bottles, at spirits retailers across Scotland and on Dewar's.com.
