The Famous Grouse is Scotland’s #1 blended Scotch, but the newest version of the Grouse won’t be available there. The Black Grouse is a new blend that takes the best of the Grouse and adds in a touch of Islay for a peatier, smokier blend. It’s been on the market all year in Sweden, where Edrington’s Helen Potter got the inspiration to create the Black Grouse. Helen is the innovation and development manager for The Famous Grouse, and she’ll give us the details on the Black Grouse. In the news, new whiskies from BenRiach and Old Forester, and they’ll fire up the still at George Washington’s Distillery this week.
