Famous Grouse
Scotland
Blended
Famous Grouse is one of the world's most popular blends, and the best-selling Scotch whisky in Scotland. This whisky is a nicely balanced, malty blend which was first made in 1896. It went on to be known as The Famous Grouse, with the name registered in 1905. Around eighty years later, the company was awarded a Royal Warrant. The blend represents great value for money, and it also works beautiful in whisky-based cocktails. Delicious.
A perennial favourite with critics and connoisseurs alike, Famous Grouse whisky is a superb blend with a great deal of character. Today, more than 2 million cases are sold annually, making it one of the most popular whiskies in the world.
A crisp, light nose offering up notes of toffee apples, hints of dried flowers and biscuity barley.
Balanced, biscuit-laden palate with a core of thick, creamy malt. Just a hint of spice and the vaguest whisper of smoke really bring a great deal of complexity.
A slightly sweet, malty finish.
A very malty, biscuity blend. It's easy to see why this is so popular in Scotland!
Ok some will love it some will hate it. I don't mind it, my typical tipple is a smokey peat bog ardbeg that's my go to. This being a blend from Speyside it doesn't have that smokey punch. The famous grouse I've grown up with my family have drank it for years it's a drink Cabinet staple that is always there for a wee night cap. Yes it's cheap but and yes its blended so don't compare it to a high end single malt. I enjoy it is nice easy going and pleasant to drink every now and then.
Too harsh, literally like paint stripper. I’d much prefer paying a slight bit more for a much smoother Haig Club or Glenfiddich which are both very smooth tasting whiskies.
Awful, just awful.
Being a beginner in Whisk(e)y universe, I would consider this an ok drinkable whiskey. But for the prize, I would rather choose High Commissioner, Bell's or Grant's, wich are more lively. I want to try Famous Grouse Burbon cask or Ruby cask instead.
I used to think it was decent enough, albeit boring, for a budget scotch back when I had bought it maybe a couple times several years ago. I just bought it again today for the first time in years, and I find it to be extremely unpleasant. It has an almost acrid aroma, and goes down about as smoothly as that. I could barely even stand it in a Rob Roy. It made me wonder “ has it changed ???”
