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!

My go to sipping on an evening drink, over and above many much more rare and expensive Malts, Blends & Bourbons. Nice warming, relaxing sensations delivers with tastes of malty vanilla a little bit of spice mixed with biscuity & barley.
My favourite tipple. Enjoy straight, with water, with soda water or just ice. You’re in charge and you’re a grown-up. Drink it how you want to.
I do not understand the negativity of some reviews. The same attitude I meet many times against Macallan, where I ask myself everytime : did these people really taste the whisky ? The Famous Grouse is not a top whisky, I think everybody can agree on that, but it is also not a bad whisky. From the blended ones that I know ( Bells, JWRed, Teachers, Grant ) it is for me the best. I am not going to compare with single malts, they play in another league. The only blend I place above FG is JWBlack Label, because of its more complexity. But it also cost more than double of what I paid for FG, 15 euros on offer here, which is a steal !
This is hands down the best blended Scotch for the money. That is not to say there are not others that compare. The tasting notes above are spot on. I have spent far more money on certain single malts as well as blends, and dollar for dollar Famous Grouse wins hands down.
Perfect for any ocassion
