This bottling of a 15-year-old blended Scotch whisky was produced by John Dewar & Sons as a Special Reserve Blend, formerly known as The Monarch. The blend consists of malt and grain whisky which is stored again in oak casks after blending.
Dewars is a brand that today belongs to Bacardi, with the Aberfeldy distillery at its centre. It was founded by John Dewar, who had been running a wine and spirits business in Perth since 1846, which his sons successfully expanded. The Aberfeldy distillery was founded in 1896 to cope with the increasing turnover. The best-known product is Dewar's White Label.
Scotland and Scotch whisky is a global trend, a development that has led to a flourishing whisky scene in Scotland. There is hardly a week that goes by in which there is no news about another new distillery being built or the reopening of a distillery that has been closed for a long time.
Scotland, together with Ireland, is today considered the motherland of whisky, whose roots there go back to around 1500 AD.
