Famous Grouse

At first, this blended scotch had a very off-putting smell and taste, reminiscent of unaged grain alcohol. However, this unpleasantness disappeared after letting the drink breathe for a few minutes, and now that the bottle has been opened for a bit, everything tastes and smells delightful. I’ve quickly grown to love this dram for its unsophisticated-yet-inscrutable flavor. I agree with other reviewers who say that this drink tastes like caramel and honey. I can sometimes detect a slight peatiness (probably a result of the Highland Park), but the overall experience is dominated by a gentle sweetness. This scotch is too smooth, even for 40%. My bottle is emptying far too quickly..

Better than Dewer’s and cheaper to boot! Thanks @otisdb
