I enjoy this whisky and I hope that when Edrington sold Glenturret to Art & Terroir they were able to write in some stipulations about getting access to barrels to keep this brand going without having to dramatically change it. They also sold off Cutty Sark to La Martiniquaise at the same time, so who knows what’s going to happen with that one. But for now they’re holding on to all the Grouse brands so I’m hoping they can keep this going and keep it tasty. Anyways, time to drink!

In 1870, following Matthew’s death, the company was sold to Highland Distillers (the same company that owns Macallan as of 1996). From there, the whisky has gained a much wider appeal, becoming the most popular whisky in Scotland in 1980 and being awarded a Royal Warrant in 1984. Edrington, owner of Naked Grouse, said the change is being made in response to the increasing popularity of single malts, and demand from bartenders for an accessible whisky ‘with distinctive flavour’. Blended Malt whisky continues to rise in popularity and is recruiting new younger consumers. The contemporary whisky category is showing solid double-digit growth, with no signs of slowing. For all sales enquiries, please get in touch with your local Spirits Platform representative.For our consumers, the whisky category can be difficult to navigate and bound with conventions they don’t want to be constrained by, so for us, it’s about making whisky more accessible,” Elaine Miller, Global Brand Controller at Naked Malt, said in a prepared statement. “We want to give a new generation the freedom to try whisky their way, whilst providing the reassurance of a great quality, versatile liquid.”

Whiskybase B.V. (“Whiskybase”, “we” or “us”, company details below) offers a whisky enthusiasts online platform that provides its members access to the most comprehensive, transparent and trusted resource of whisky bottles and allows and stimulates its members to contribute information about whisky bottles to the platform (“Service”). Convention said Blended Malt matured and got its flavour from pre-used Bourbon casks. This got us thinking, what if instead we used first-fill sherry casks to add another layer of rich and fruity flavour to our unique blend of single malts? These are casks that have never held whisky, Naked Casks we call them. This liberating leap into the unknown didn’t just work, it was a joyful exuberance of flavour that changed the possibilities of whisky enjoyment! – Famous Grouse Naked Malt is available in 70cl at 40% ABV.

Economic depression, coupled with high taxation, had forced a high reliance on export markets. However, as was the case with a handful of other blenders, the company’s distribution to markets close to the United States such as Canada, Latin America and the West Indies suddenly shot up. If some shipments made their way into the States, then so be it.

Over the last century or so The Famous Grouse has developed into one of the world’s leading Scotch whiskies and in recent years has been flanked by complementary expressions to form a range of its own.

That’s a pretty bold statement, I know, but I haven’t been too enthused with the latest releases of Highland Park 12 or Macallan 12; neither one is really hitting the strides they used to. As for Glenturret and Glenrothes… well… I’ve never been a big Glenrothes fan and this exceeds nearly every one I’ve had. Glenturret I’ve had a few here and there, but nothing that’s ever made me purposefully seek them out – hence the statement above. Der er en medium afslutning på denne blended malt whisky. Sødmen er stadig meget tydelig, hvor særligt det brune sukker stikker frem. Rosiner og abrikoser ligger konstant i baggrunden. Efter lidt tid kommer vanilje og egetræ en smule frem. Ligeledes fremkommer en let bitterhed, og lidt syrlighed mærkes på tungen. Det minder lidt om det man kender fra revet citron skal. Man sidder tilbage med en fornemmelse af sukkersødme i munden. Hvad siger Producenten: The Edrington Group owns the Famous Grouse brand as well as The Macallan, Cutty Sark and Highland Park. This Naked Grouse has a high proportion of spirit from Macallan & Highland Park. The Macallan bringing the sweet sherry influence, and Highland Park bringing a slightly malty, smoky sharpness.

William Grant & Sons, the company which owns a significant chunk of Scottish distilleries including Balvenie and even Tuthilltown Spiritsin New York, helped take the company private in 2000 where it remains today. Product Consumers and bartenders are looking for something more unique, which is why we wanted to move the brand on and change it.’ While many sources claim the Famous Grouse story began in 1800, the story of Matthew Gloag & Sons didn’t start with the Gloags at all. Rather, it began with the Browns. Matthew Gloag wins the contract to supply food and wine for the visit of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert to Perth Naked Grouse er en skotsk blended whisky på 40% Vol. Blenderen er The Famous Grouse, som har flere kendte blends på samvittigheden. Eller rettere, det var The Famous Grouse, som var producent. Da Naked Grouse er en blended malt whisky, har Edrington Group valgt at markedsføre den under sit eget brand – nemllig Naked Grouse. Whiskyen er blended af flere single malt whiskyer fra skotske destillerier. Den indeholder altså ikke grain whisky, som ellers ofte er forekommende i skotske blends. Whiskyen indeholder angiveligt både single malt whisky fra destillerierne Highland Park, Macallan og Glenturret, der alle indtil for nyligt alle har været ejet af Edrington Group. Glenturret er for nyligt solgt til Lalique Group SA. Den har lagret på first fill og genbrugte ameriansk ex-bourbon fad, og efterfølgende afsluttet med 6 måneder på ex-oloroso fad. Whiskyen er uden aldersangivelse og er kølefiltreret.

The first thing I like about this bottle is that there is practically no label! One of my biggest pet peeves with whiskey bottles (and especially with the Famous Grouse brand) is that you can’t really see what you are buying. That amber colored spirit is the star of the show, and the bottle should accentuate and display it as much as possible. A huge label like the typical Famous Grouse varieties sport just hides it, but with this version the whiskey is large and in charge.

The relaunch of Naked Malt, formerly Naked Grouse, will see no change to this award-winning liquid from ultra-premium spirits company The Edrington Group. But it will usher in a new name and look that reflects the brand’s growing appeal to a new generation of whisky drinkers. PALATE: An interesting flavour development. The first sip is just spicy notes. Sweetness develops a bit more by the second sip. The second sip has remnants of bubblegum, plump cherries and bits of butterscotch. The new 40% abv Naked Grouse blended malt has been made from a selection of malt whiskies – including Glenturret, Highland Park and Macallan– matured in first-fill and refill American and European oak casks, and then finished in first-fill oloroso Sherry butts for a further six months. We’ve pulled it out of Famous Grouse, so it will be a brand in its own right,’ she said. ‘We are trying to make it as simple as possible by moving away from some of the stereotypes of whisky and doing something for older millennials.
