Dewar’s 15 Year Old The Monarch Blended Scotch Whisky

Dewar’s 15 Year Old The Monarch is the premium age-stated expression from one of Scotland’s most historic blended Scotch brands — 15-year minimum aged blended Scotch built around Aberfeldy single malt, using Dewar’s signature double-aging process for maximum integration and complexity, named to honour the long royal heritage of the brand.

The Monarch name references Dewar’s multiple royal warrants and its history as a prestige blended Scotch from the late 19th century onward. The 15-year expression sits between the standard 12 Year White Label and the premium 18 Year Double Double in the core range. Browse all Scotch whisky at Wooden Cork.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Dewar’s 15 Year The Monarch the same as the Special Reserve 15 Year?

Both are 15-year minimum aged expressions from Dewar’s using the same double-aging process. The Monarch name has been used as a sub-designation for the 15-year expression in different markets and at different periods. The whisky is effectively the same expression.

What does double-aging mean in the context of Dewar’s?

After initial blending of malt and grain whiskies, Dewar’s returns the blend to oak casks for additional maturation — the ‘marrying’ process that produces a more unified, cohesive, and integrated character. Dewar’s pioneered this technique and it defines the house style across all age statements.
