Naked Grouse is a new all malt blended Scotch that goes back to whisky at its simplest and most uncomplicated. There’s no need to dress up our whisky – we use our skill, our Naked first-fill sherry casks, and our simple respect for the liquid to deliver a rich and balanced whisky that is what it is. Naked Grouse is best for those liberating moments when you don’t need anything to hide the good stuff. It has aromas of buttery toffee and orchard fruits, flavors of baked apples, dried cherries, rich chocolate, and a smooth finish of soft spices and toasted oak.
Currants, rich chocolate, baked apples
Whisky at its most uncomplicated.
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.
So hats off (and everything off!) to Naked Grouse, for taking a liberating leap into the unknown.
