The Famous Grouse 700ml

The Famous Grouse has been around since 1896, produced out of what is today one of Scotland’s oldest distilleries still in operation. Its reasonable price makes it perfect for everyday drinking and mixing. Nose: Lots of oak, some barley, and pungent, slightly fruity notes reminiscent of an oaky chardonnay Palate: Quite sweet up front, with notes of vanilla custard and créme brûlée. As it hits midpalate, it gets drier and a little woodier, with undertones of caramel, toffee, and malt. The mouthfeel is quite full and buttery throughout. Finish: Medium length; a little medicinal, a little oaky, a little sour, leaving a slightly unpleasant aftertaste
