This award winning Famous Grouse Blended Malt Scotch Whisky 12 years old is created from the finest single malt whiskies including The Macallan and Highland Park, which are left undisturbed for a minimum of 12 years. Only then are they brought together and married in cask, allowing the whiskies extra time to blend together to create an exceptionally smooth and rounded character.

Review by Linusstick
- Color
- medium gold
- Nose
- butter, cinnamon, caramel malt
- Body
- light bodied
- Palate
- Strong butter flavor, light spiciness with hints of cinnamon
- Finish
- Weak finish- very light and thin. A hint of warmness and prickliness but not much
I've had much better blended malts. The weird butter flavor/taste makes is too big to ignore.
