The Famous Grouse 1989 Vintage Malt Whisky Sherry Butt and Hogsheads 40% 700ml information

The Famous Grouse 1989 Vintage Malt Whisky is a rare and discontinued gem, meticulously crafted from the finest whiskies distilled in a single year. This exceptional whisky, last produced in 1989, is highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts alike. Matthew Gloag & Son Ltd., the esteemed Perth wine merchants who introduced The Famous Grouse in 1896, are behind this exquisite creation. The brand's rapid rise to fame led to its renaming as The Famous Grouse in 1905, and in 1984, it was honored with a Royal Warrant, further cementing its prestigious status. This vintage malt whisky is a harmonious blend of up to 40 malt and grain whiskies, sourced from Scotland's four renowned whisky-producing regions. Each whisky in the blend is matured in oak casks for a minimum of 8 years, imbuing the spirit with rich fruity and sweet toffee notes. After 12 years of undisturbed maturation in individual sherry butts and hogsheads from distinguished distilleries such as The Macallan and Highland Park, each cask is meticulously selected to create a whisky of exceptionally smooth character. Presented in a 700ml bottle with an alcohol content of 40%, The Famous Grouse 1989 Vintage Malt Whisky is not only a delightful sensory experience but also a highly collectible item, making it an excellent addition to any whisky connoisseur's collection.
