Description
Famous Grouse Vintage 1992 Bottled 2004 70cl, 40% is a rare blended malt Scotch whisky from The Famous Grouse, released as part of the brand’s Vintage Malt Whisky series. This expression was made using malt whiskies distilled in 1992 and bottled in 2004, giving it a much more collectible identity than the standard Famous Grouse blend.
This release was bottled by Edrington and was originally released exclusively for the travel retail market. Specialist references confirm that Macallan and Highland Park were included among the malt whiskies used, while another specialist listing also mentions Glenrothes in the blend.
The style is richer and more mature than regular Famous Grouse, with sherry fruit, dried raisins, figs, orange peel, honey, chocolate, vanilla, gentle smoke, polished oak and soft spice. It is a very interesting bottle for collectors because it belongs to the older vintage-dated blended malt side of the Famous Grouse range.
