About this deal

I loved the Black Grouse whisky and found it the perfect bottle to pair with Indian food and use in marinade for lamb. The Black Grouse (Tetrao tetrix) is a rare relative of Scotland’s national game bird, the Red Grouse. To be eligible for a full refund you must contact us to inform us of any issue within 24 hours of receipt. Produced in Scotland, it is a blend of peated and non-peated malt whiskies that have been carefully aged in oak casks to create a complex and well-balanced flavour.

Such as a driving license, passport, military ID card, national identity card or a proof of age card with the PASS hologram. The blend is a newer member of the Famous Grouse roster, and produces a distinctly light and smooth flavour while still packing in those heavy smoke flavours. Although not mentioned by name anymore, the bottle still features a Tetrao tetrix, otherwise known as a blackcock. Unconventional from the start, he named his unique whisky after the iconic Scottish game bird, rather than himself.

The result is a rich whisky which provides the full flavoured smokiness of Islay together with the smoothness of The Famous Grouse Blend. Comparing it to my tasting notes for the Black Grouse, I am not convinced that the recipe stayed the same. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.

We recommend that you do not rely solely on the information presented here and that you always read labels, warnings, and directions before using or consuming a product.The Famous Grouse Smoky Black Whisky Miniatures The Famous Grouse Smoky Black (previously The Black Grouse) combines some of the finest Islay single malt whiskies blended together with The Famous Grouse. As the blend marries and matures, our hand-crafted oak casks gently infuse subtle shades of flavour, bringing the character of the whisky to life. It has dark, russet golden, clear and bright appearance with smoky, soft and musky, rich and full aroma. A personalised bottle of Famous Grouse Smoky Black is sure to make a fantastic gift for anyone who prefers their scotch whisky to tend more towards the peaty side.

Today is has become one of the most recognisable brands in the whole Scotch whisky world, and under the ownership of Highland Distillers became the first blend to have its own visitor centre, formerly located at the Glenturret distillery. We'll send them to be recycled and you'll save paper, carbon emissions and time at the recycling centre!

As you might expect, it’s been crafted to emphasise those smoky notes, but it’s still approachable, with plenty of complex dried fruit providing a counterbalance. The smoky influence of the peated malts is balanced by the trademark smoothness of The Famous Grouse to create underlying hints of cocoa and spice and a long smoky aromatic finish. 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.
