Dewar’s Double act with Blockbar comprising inaugural NFT

What makes this particular collaboration unique is the fact that the NFT in question will act as a record of authenticity for the purchase of the limited edition Dewar’s Double Double 21-Year-Old Rye Cask Finish Scotch Whisky. The NFT will be held on BlockBar, creating an immutable record of the purchase. This will ensure that customers can prove their ownership of the limited-edition whisky, which is sure to attract collectors from around the world.

The customer can then ‘burn’ the NFT to redeem the bottle of whisky, which will be delivered directly from BlockBar’s secure storage facility. They also have the option to resell it on the BlockBar.com marketplace, leveraging the NFT’s proof of authenticity to make sure that the purchase is genuine.

Why are NFTs becoming so popular in the whisky industry?

The trade-in NFTs is being driven by a growing interest in digital art, collectables, and other valuable items. NFTs provide a safe way to buy and sell these assets, as the blockchain technology behind them ensures that no two tokens are ever exactly the same.

This makes it possible to prove ownership of an item, creating a secure online marketplace where buyers can be confident that they’re getting a genuine asset. The transparency of the blockchain helps to eliminate fraud, as all transactions are visible and can be verified.

Whisky has always had a connection with art and collectables, and whisky NFTs are gaining popularity within the NFT market. Whisky connoisseurs are increasingly looking to purchase NTFs connected to rare and exclusive whiskies, giving buyers the chance to invest in a unique asset.

What makes the Dewar’s Double Double 21-Year-Old Rye Cask Finish so unique?

There are two factors that go into making this whisky truly special.  The first is the whisky itself. The Double Double Series is already a multi-award-winning whisky. It is made using the signature Dewer’s four-step ageing process and crafted by Master Blender Stephanie Macleod for added complexity and depth.

This special edition is further aged for 21 years, allowing the whisky to develop a unique flavour profile with hints of warm wood spices, creamy vanilla, caramel shortcake and chocolate orange.

The second factor that makes Dewar’s Double Double 21-Year-Old Rye Cask Finish so unique is the fact that, rather than just having an accompanying NFT image, the collaboration with BlockBar means the NFT represents a physical asset – a single bottle of Dewar’s whisky. This highly collectable whisky is strictly limited edition, with only 50 bottles available worldwide.

Since the whisky will then be stored in by BlockBar, this NFT is ideal for those who have limited storage space but still wish to invest in a bottle of premium whisky. 

The bottle can even be displayed in the purchaser’s digital bar showing off the unique bottle for friends and family to admire. 

This exclusive collection celebrates Dewar’s and BlockBar’s shared commitment to celebrating heritage, craftsmanship and innovation. By pairing the timeless art of whisky-making with cutting-edge blockchain technology, this partnership is sure to be a hit with collectors.

The future of whisky collecting

The combination of whisky and NFTs is an exciting prospect for whisky connoisseurs. Not only does it allow them to collect rare and limited edition bottles, but it also gives them the security of knowing that their collection is safe and secure on the blockchain. 

This partnership between Dewar’s and BlockBar is a great example of how traditional products can be modernized through the use of blockchain technology. In the future, more and more distilleries could follow suit and start using NFTs to create new ways to collect whisky. It’s an exciting prospect that could revolutionize the way consumers interact with their favourite whiskies.

As whisky lovers around the world continue to explore new ways to enjoy their favourite spirits, the Dewar’s and BlockBar collaboration is paving the way for a new era of whisky collecting.
