Just stick with the “Dewar’s White Label” if you’re looking for a quality blended whiskey....you’ll be fine.

How do you know the brown liquid in that “Dewar’s White Label” bottle is really “Dewar’s White Label” whisky?

Ditto on the Dewars and Bomar for a good single malt.

In my experience, the term “quality blended whisk[e]y” is an oxymoron. White Label is better than most, certainly, but the whole point of drinking whisky in the first place is to be drinking something that is unique, and not homogenized for mass consumption.

Now, that’s personal opinion and taste on my part.

The reason why I grew up not wanting to touch any product of Dewar’s, however good the quality might be, is that I was taught from an age well before I could drink that Joe P. Kennedy Sr. had been the sole agent for Dewar’s in the US and that all those among the Scots diaspora who were drinking any Dewar’s product, thinking they were getting a taste of the homeland, were in fact enriching the contemptible Kennedy clan of Catholic Irish.

While traveling internationally I once picked up a bottle of Dewar's Special Reserve, 43%. I found it in a duty free shop; I haven't seen it here in the States, at least not where I live.

One of the best scotches I've ever tasted. Magnificent stuff...
