Edrington, owner of Naked Grouse, said the change is being made in response to the increasing popularity of single malts, and demand from bartenders for an accessible whisky ‘with distinctive flavour’. Convention said that blended malt got its flavour from bourbon casks, used again and again. This got us thinking… What if instead, we used first fill sherry casks to add another layer of rich and fruity flavour to our malts? It didn’t just work, it was a joyful exuberance of flavour that changed the possibilities of whisky enjoyment.” Konklusion:

Malt whisky continues to rise in popularity with consumers and, by changing our blended Scotch to a blended malt, we can use the individuality and character of single malts and create a whisky that stands out from the crowd,’ said Elaine Miller, global marketing manager for Naked Grouse.

PALATE: An interesting flavour development. The first sip is just spicy notes. Sweetness develops a bit more by the second sip. The second sip has remnants of bubblegum, plump cherries and bits of butterscotch. Matthew Irving Gloag retires from the company due to ill health. The last Gloag to be involved in the company, he remains a consultant for life William Grant & Sons, the company which owns a significant chunk of Scottish distilleries including Balvenie and even Tuthilltown Spiritsin New York, helped take the company private in 2000 where it remains today. ProductThat’s a pretty bold statement, I know, but I haven’t been too enthused with the latest releases of Highland Park 12 or Macallan 12; neither one is really hitting the strides they used to. As for Glenturret and Glenrothes… well… I’ve never been a big Glenrothes fan and this exceeds nearly every one I’ve had. Glenturret I’ve had a few here and there, but nothing that’s ever made me purposefully seek them out – hence the statement above. By the time Matthew Gloag died in 1860, the family business portfolio focused mostly on wines and his son, William Gloag, largely continued this trend. The rebranding will see one of these first-fill sherry casks replace the grouse on the bottle, which stays entirely transparent to showcase the liquid. Selected for the balance of sweetness and rich, fruity character they impart, these casks are four times the value of the bourbon casks used by competitor brands.

Naked Malt’s flavor is said to be enhanced when the unique blend is extra-matured in first-fill Oloroso sherry casks for at least six months. The casks have never held whisky before and impart the best flavor and cask character to create a distinctive taste that is rich and fruity, yet versatile. While many sources claim the Famous Grouse story began in 1800, the story of Matthew Gloag & Sons didn’t start with the Gloags at all. Rather, it began with the Browns. The Naked Grouse Blended Malt Scotch Whisky is just plan good. It’s sippable, it’s mixable, it’s not too sweet and has a nice profile veteran drinkers can easily enjoy yet it’s 100% approachable for those venturing into the world of Scotch. It’s not incredibly complex, but what’s there is delivered with a warming richness that far exceeds expectations.

Naked Grouse er en skotsk blended whisky på 40% Vol. Blenderen er The Famous Grouse, som har flere kendte blends på samvittigheden. Eller rettere, det var The Famous Grouse, som var producent. Da Naked Grouse er en blended malt whisky, har Edrington Group valgt at markedsføre den under sit eget brand – nemllig Naked Grouse. Whiskyen er blended af flere single malt whiskyer fra skotske destillerier. Den indeholder altså ikke grain whisky, som ellers ofte er forekommende i skotske blends. Whiskyen indeholder angiveligt både single malt whisky fra destillerierne Highland Park, Macallan og Glenturret, der alle indtil for nyligt alle har været ejet af Edrington Group. Glenturret er for nyligt solgt til Lalique Group SA. Den har lagret på first fill og genbrugte ameriansk ex-bourbon fad, og efterfølgende afsluttet med 6 måneder på ex-oloroso fad. Whiskyen er uden aldersangivelse og er kølefiltreret. The Edrington Group owns the Famous Grouse brand as well as The Macallan, Cutty Sark and Highland Park. This Naked Grouse has a high proportion of spirit from Macallan & Highland Park. The Macallan bringing the sweet sherry influence, and Highland Park bringing a slightly malty, smoky sharpness. Something to note about that body is that, rather than the eponymous Famous Grouse being an illustration, now the grouse is molded right into the glass of the bottle. It’s a very cool and very interesting design feature.
