Whisky (or whiskey) is produced in various guises all over the world. Japanese Whisky, Irish Whiskey and American Whiskeys (including Bourbon) are challenging Scotch Whisky, with of them many winning notable awards and accolades. Meanwhile, whiskies from countries as diverse as India, Canada, Sweden, Wales, Taiwan and England are also becoming increasingly noteworthy in both quality and abundance.
The distillation process spread to Scotland and Ireland by the 15th century via Alexandrian Greeks, Medieval Arabs and Latin Europeans. The Scots and the Irish, who already had a well-developed tradition of farming cereal crops, used the technique to distil from a variety of fermented grain mashes to produce a spirit, most closely resembling today’s new make spirits.
The process of distilling fermented grain mash and aging it in oak barrels to make Whisky (or whiskey) has spread the world and has resulted in a remarkable range of styles, including Single Malt Whisky, Blended Malt Whisky, Grain Whisky, Rye Whiskey and Blended Whisky (containing both Single Malt Whisky and Grain Whisky).

Naked Malt is the new name of the Naked Grouse of the Famous Grouse brand. It was created as its own brand to add a sweet and smooth variation to the range of the Famous Grouse Whiskies. The content is the same, even with the new name: The Blended Malt includes Whiskies from Glenturret, Highland Park and Macallan.
First Fill Oloroso sherry cask.
Naked Grouse was first introduced to The Edrington Groups Famous Grouse whisky portfolio (if memory serves me right) around 2011, it was originally launched as a premium sherry rich Scotch Blended Whisky containing a blend of grain and single malt whiskies including two of Edrington’s most renowned single malts, Highland Park and The Macallan.
At that time the new sherry rich Naked Grouse with its first fill sherry cask influence represented quite a significant departure from the usual style of Scotch blended whiskies, but one which caught the interest of normally devout single malt whisky drinkers.
In 2017, Edrington took the Naked Grouse out of The Famous Grouse portfolio and relaunched it as a standalone brand with a very different flavour and personality than its predecessor, the grain whisky had now been removed from the blend and it was now a Blended Malt, containing amongst others, single malts from Edrington’s Highland Park, The Macallan and The Glenrothes distilleries.
The single malts were blended together by Edrington’s Master Blender and then added to the first-fill sherry casks to further marry and mature for at least a further six months, the whisky then went through a final chill-filter before bottling.
The result was Naked Grouse, now a sherry rich Scotch Blended Malt with a buttery toffee scent on the nose which is malty and reminiscent of orchard fruits. On the palate sultanas, rich fudge and cooked apples come through, followed by a finish of soft spice and toasted oak.
Now 2021, Edrington have rebranded Naked Grouse as Naked Malt, which makes sense really as they had already taken it out the The Famous Grouse portfolio back in 2017 although it still carried the Grouse name until now.
There has been no change to the whisky you will find in the bottle with this latest rebranding, it is simply a new name, Naked Malt, which will be presented with a new contemporary look.
Diane Stuart, Naked Malt Master Blender, commented: “Naked Malt is blended using some of the finest Scottish single malts, each selected for its quality and individual flavour. Every cask of Single Malt Scotch whisky selected for our blend is nosed to ensure it meets our exacting standard.
“By extra maturing Naked Malt in first-fill Oloroso sherry casks, we deliver quality and intensity of flavour enviable in the contemporary whisky category. We create the perfect balance of sweet, fruity character from the American oak with the rich, dried fruit and spicy notes from the European oak to produce Naked Malts signature flavour. But what matters most is that you enjoy it whichever way you like.”

The Famous Grouse blended Scotch whisky, which has been allowed to marry in specially selected Port casks, a variation on the classic recipe that really comes through on the finish with notes of dark red fruits.
The Famous Grouse Sherry Cask Finish has aromas of cocoa, sherry, cherries and light oak. Sweet on the tongue by the Sherry tones, herbs and some fruit. The aftertaste is full of flavor with notes of chocolate and spices.
Speyside malts were matured in Sherry-seasoned, European oak casks to craft Famous Grouse Sherry Cask Finish. The blend has been in development for two years.
Sanele Gwala, global senior brand manager at The Famous Grouse, explained: “This new, revived blend is finished in Sherry casks and butts seasoned in the region of Jerez, Spain. The aim was to create a blend that is slightly sweeter but still in keeping with the smooth and distinct DNA of classic Grouse.
“Once the blend is in its final stages of maturation, which involves the meticulous combination of hand selected malt and grain whiskies, The Famous Grouse master blender does not stop there; the full blend is married in ex-Sherry casks to further enhance their sweet, rich, and smooth characters.
“The Sherry Cask Finish is a decadent blend of festive flavours including chocolate, almonds, dried fruits, and sweet spices.”
The packaging pays tribute to the Spanish female capercaillie bird, part of the grouse family. This particular bird was chosen for its link to the product’s Spanish Sherry heritage, as well as its orange and red plumage, which ‘echoes the deep amber’ of the liquid.
The Famous Grouse Smoky Black (previously The Black Grouse) blends more peated malt whiskies, including a rare version of Glenturret, with exceptional grain whiskies to produce a richer, lightly smoky and smooth flavour. Explore a smokier side to our Famous whisky.

After more than a decade in American white oak ex-bourbon barrels, this 12-year-old single malt from Fettercairn is a classic example of the distillery’s signature tropical fruit style. The palate brings notes of vanilla, pears and soft spices, before a fruity wave of nectarines, tropical fruit, clove, ginger and roasted coffee. The finish is lingering and sweet, offering notes of black toffee and sultanas.
The 2021-release of 16-year-old single malt from Fettercairn is a soft, sweet single malt with notes of vanilla, ginger, raisins, peaches, honey, banana and chocolate throughout the palate and lingering in the finish.
This is the Fettercairn Distillery’s second release of its 16 year old single malt Scotch whisky, and this time, the team has gone for a distinctly sherried styling. Whisky matured and finished in three different types of sherry casks has been used for this expression, including first-fill Oloroso, refill Oloroso, and first-fill Palo Cortado sherry butts.

As far as Kentucky straight bourbon whiskies go, Four Roses Yellow Label really does pack a punch. This is a blend of 10 gorgeous bourbons giving a tasty and spicy unique flavour and 40% ABV.
Four Roses founder Paul Jones Jr. became undoubtedly smitten by a beautiful woman who he proposed to. She said she would let him know her answer later by attending an evening ball with a four rose corsage. We guess she said yes, since he renamed his entire brand to Four Roses. This Single Barrel 100 Proof bourbon is plummy and fruity with lots of character, it makes a fantastic Hot Toddy or Kentucky lemonade.
A terrific small-batch bourbon from Four Roses – and in this case, Small Batch means just that – only four casks are used in the construction of each release. Sweet and spicy, with a generous dash of vanilla, this is a treat.
You never usually see Fuji whiskey outside of Japan… until now! This single grain is made predominately of malted barley and corn with some rye and comprises three different styles, a Canadian-style grain whiskey made using batch distillation with a kettle distiller (similar to a pot still), a bourbon-style grain whiskey distillate using a doubler (Fuji boasts the only kettle and Doubler outside the U.S.), and a Scotch-style grain whisky made using a column still.
Check out the bottom of the bottle and you’ll notice an indent that looks a little like a mountain. Isn’t there a Mount Fuji? Probably just a coincidence.
From the giant Fuji Gotemba Distillery comes the brand’s signature single malt. Yes, the distillery is at the base of Mount Fuji and that’s where it gets its name. Matured in a combination of bourbon and beer casks (the brand is owned by the Kirin Brewery Company so has good access), this is an elegant, Scotch-style single malt.
This is a blend of single malt and grain whiskies made at Fuji Gotemba distillery. It was matured in ex-bourbon casks which add aromas of coconut alongside dried apricot and peach on the nose, followed by pleasant notes of orchard fruit, citrus peel and rosehip.

Arboralis comes from the Latin phrase meaning “light from within the trees,” a concept Glen Grant uses to highlight how the whisky’s golden hue reflects the gentle light filtering through the trees surrounding the distillery. Matured in a combination of ex-bourbon barrels and Oloroso sherry casks, this expression offers inviting notes of honeysuckle, lemon, butterscotch, vanilla, and pear.

An easy-going single malt from an unnamed distillery in Speyside, Glen Parker is ever so slightly peaty.
A delicious entry level whisky from the Campbeltown distillery. This is aged in 100% first-fill bourbon barrels and offers a superb introduction to one of the great whisky regions of Scotland.
This is the 15 year old single malt Scotch whisky from Glen Scotia in the Campbeltown region, released in 2015 as part of a redesign for their range. The distillers use specially selected American oak casks to age this expression, which compliment the fruit-forward and subtly coastal whisky rather well.
Tasting Notes
Colour: Golden. This is directly supported by the official tasting information.
Nose: Bright lemon and fresh hay combine with vanilla pod, followed by green apple, fragrant jasmine, and charred oak. This is directly supported by the official tasting information.
Palate: Sweet and creamy, with custard giving way to nectarine, passion fruit, tangerine peel, lime, and pineapple. This is directly supported by the official tasting information.
Finish: Medium-bodied, with lingering tropical fruit and a fresh mint note. This is directly supported by the official tasting information.
A mid-2017 addition to the Glen Scotia range, this 25 year old single malt was drawn from some specially selected casks and married in first-fill bourbon barrels before being bottled at 48.8% ABV.
Looks like the Glen Scotia range has had a bit of a redesign! They’ve gone for quite a classic, refined design this time, and have even introduced a selection of new expressions, including the Glen Scotia Double Cask! This Campbeltown single malt is finished in a combination of first-fill bourbon barrels and Pedro Ximénez Sherry casks.
Glen Scotia’s Victoriana sees the Campbeltown distillery’s single malt drawn from casks with a particularly heavy char profile, imparting plenty of rich, roasty-toasty notes. This, however, is the Victoriana Cask Strength expression. It’s obvious what the difference here is – it’s bottled at cask strength, a robust 54.2% ABV, which helps bolster those aforementioned roasty-toasty notes.
