About this deal

The Famous Grouse is a brand of blended whisky, named in commemoration of the red grouse, Scotland's national game bird. Famous Grouse is famous for more than just being the top-selling Scotch in Scotland for over three decades. The long connection between the Royal Navy and rum can be traced back to 1655 and Vice-Admiral William Penn's expedition to the West Indies. Shortly after, the very first logo and Label for the Whisky Bottle was designed, only at this point did the business expand to new purpose built premises on Kinnoull Street. This intricately blended Scotch whisky is aged in handcrafted oak casks, imparting a well-rounded, memorable flavour.

The story goes that former master distiller John Ramsey got inspired during a cold night at a remote distillery where he had some mandarins and ginger cake along with a few drams. After the great French wine blight, Famous Grouse in 1875 started to look into creating their very own Blended Whisky. This lot is being sold by either; 1) a non-UK seller or 2) a VAT Registered Business, and is therefore subject to VAT. Named after the Red grouse, Scotlands national bird and blended from some the highest quality malt and grain whiskies for an exceptionally smooth taste.Although it had a short run (2003-2008), this silky-smooth liqueur is excellent: a charming infusion of citrus fruits, spices, scotch and bourbon whiskies. Today is has become one of the most recognisable brands in the whole Scotch whisky world, and under the ownership of Highland Distillers became the first blend to have its own visitor centre, formerly located at the Glenturret distillery. A smooth liqueur infused with citrus fruit, spices, Scotch and Bourbon, Famous Grouse Liqueur was produced for only 5 years from 2003 until 2008.
