Famous Grouse Finest Old Whisky (1980's Bottling)

Colour

Rich burnished amber with coppery-bronze highlights.

Nose

Silky caramel and golden toffee rise from polished oak, paired with dried fruits—fig and raisin—and a hint of almond. Sherry cask richness adds molasses, cocoa, and orange peel, while nutmeg and clove lend a quiet, refined spice to a velvety, lingering aroma.

Palate

Silky and medium-bodied, this sherry-influenced palate unfurls with dried fruits—raisin, fig, prune—woven with toffee, almond, and milk chocolate. Gentle spice and toasted oak deepen the sweetness, while a touch of orange zest and caramel linger into a warm, refined finish.

Finish

Sherry-kissed and persistent, the finish lingers with velvet smoothness. Dried red fruits, almond and toffee give way to warm spice and cocoa, finishing with refined oak and a subtle, lingering sweetness.
