The Dewar's 12-Year-Old is a masterclass in balance, making it the ideal candidate for a classic Highball. The key to this refreshing serve is using high-quality ice and a crisp, chilled soda water.
Start by filling a tall glass with large, clear ice cubes. Pour 50ml of Dewar's 12 over the ice, followed by 150ml of premium soda water. Stir gently just once to integrate the flavours without losing the carbonation.
Garnish with a long, thin slice of lemon peel to express the citrus oils over the top of the drink. This simple ritual highlights the honeyed notes of the whisky while keeping the experience light and effervescent.
