Toasted Citrus Highball
The notes of sliced green pepper and delicate smoke in Dewar’s Ilegal Smooth are mixed with the zest of pink grapefruit and fresh lemon juice, with a dash of honey to heighten the rich caramel aromas, charged together with soda water in this sublime splicing of Scotch and Mezcal.

Tommy Dewar1864 - 1930In 1892 while out with friends in New York, Tommy Dewar asked for a glass of Dewar’s whisky to be served high and with soda, ice and lemon and so the Dewar’s Original Highball was born, and became the perfect drink to enhance the smoothness of our whisky.
