- Description
- Famous Grouse's discontinued 12-year-old blended malt represents the brand in an age-statement form no longer part of its core range. At 12 years, the expression balances grain refinement with malt complexity, though the precise cask maturation details remain undocumented. This bottling appeals to those seeking discontinued blends or building collections of historical releases. A retrospective pour for Grouse enthusiasts and blended malt collectors.
