DEWAR’S WHITE LABEL 1970 40-43% - SECOND SAMPLING - More full-bodied than the current label, this features less pepper, vanilla, and oak (2.25). Peppery heat; the flavor profile isn't as deep as the contemporary version, with floral notes, subtle raisin, artificial sweetener, and a distinct plastic-metallic aftertaste (1.5). Oakiness and the aftertaste are quite prominent for me (2). Average score: 1.75. 1970s Batch: Caramel, delicate, a hint of pepper (3.25). Weak and subtle, it dissipates quickly in the mouth (2.5). Smooth and gentle, no peat detected (2.5). Overall, a pleasant, easy-drinking option for those who prefer not to taste whisky. Average score: 2.75.
