Hey there, golf aficionados and whisky connoisseurs! As we gear up to celebrate Father’s Day, what better way to honor the patriarch in your life than with a gift that perfectly marries the sophistication of Scotch whisky with the timeless allure of golf? Enter DEWAR’S 19 Year Old – The Champion’s Edition, a limited-edition whisky crafted to commemorate the enduring collaboration between DEWAR’S and the U.S. Open Championship.

Picture this: a picturesque golf course, the scent of freshly cut grass wafting through the air, and a dram of DEWAR’S 19 Year Old – The Champion’s Edition nestled in your hand. It’s not just a whisky; it’s a journey through time and tradition, echoing the precision and finesse of the sport itself.

What sets this edition apart? Well, for starters, it’s aged for a whopping 19 years, a unique age statement within the whisky category. Crafted under the expert guidance of Stephanie Macleod, five-time Master Blender of the Year, this expression undergoes DEWAR’S signature double aging process and is finished in first-fill rye whisky casks, infusing it with a rich and refined flavor profile.

So, what can you expect from this liquid gold? Prepare your taste buds for a sensory adventure. It begins with a symphony of ripe pear and heather honey, leading into a spicy tapestry of cinnamon and cocoa powder that gently warms the palate. With each sip, you’ll be transported to the rolling greens of Pinehurst Resort & Country Club, the cradle of American golf.

But wait, there’s more! DEWAR’S 19 Year Old – The Champion’s Edition isn’t just about the whisky; it’s about the experience. As you raise a toast to dear old dad, why not accompany it with the official cocktail of the U.S. Open Championship, the Lemon Wedge? Infused with DEWAR’S 12 Year Old Blended Scotch Whisky, lemonade, and club soda, it’s the perfect refreshing companion for a day on the course or a cozy evening at home.

Stephanie Macleod, the mastermind behind this exquisite blend, describes it as a remarkable journey, echoing the precision and finesse of the sport itself. And Brian Cox, Vice President of DEWAR’s North America, aptly sums it up as a celebration of camaraderie, competition, and cherished moments—a sentiment that resonates deeply, especially on Father’s Day.

So, whether you’re raising a glass to your dad, grandfather, or father figure in your life, make it a moment to remember with DEWAR’S 19 Year Old – The Champion’s Edition.
